frequently asked questions
To assist us in preparing your eviction response, please upload clear photos or scans of all documents you've received related to the eviction process. This typically includes:
Summons and Complaint: The initial documents served to you by your landlord to commence the eviction process.
Notices: Such as a 3-day notice to pay rent or quit, that is attached to the Complaint as Exhibit "2".
Providing these documents ensures we have all necessary information to effectively prepare your response.
In California, tenants now have 10 days, excluding weekends and hoildays to respond to an eviction lawsuit after being served. Missing this critical deadline can lead to serious consequences:
Default Judgment: If you don't respond within the allotted time, the court may issue a default judgment in favor of the landlord, resulting in an eviction order without considering your side of the case.
Loss of Possession: A default judgment can lead to a writ of possession, authorizing the sheriff to remove you from the property.
Financial Liabilities: You may be held responsible for unpaid rent, damages, and possibly the landlord's legal fees.
It's crucial to act promptly. If you've missed the deadline, contact us immediately to discuss possible options to address the situation.
After we prepare and file your eviction response, we will:
Provide Confirmation: You'll receive a confirmation email with details of the filing, including the date and time it was submitted to the court.
Court Stamped Copy: A copy of the filed response, stamped by the court, will be sent to you for your records after the court accepts the filing.
This ensures you're fully informed and have documented proof of your timely and proper response.
