Eviction Roommate

To legally evict a roommate from a shared house or apartment, state and local eviction laws must be properly followed. A person wishing to evict a roommate who is named in the lease should speak to their landlord, who may be able to assist the tenant in the eviction process by filing the necessary paperwork. In the case of a homeowner with no landlord who wishes to evict a roommate, the standard eviction process should be followed, beginning with serving the roommate with a formal eviction notice. An eviction complaint can then be filed with the courts to have the roommate legally evicted from the property. An eviction attorney may be consulted to help a tenant through the process of evicting a roommate. If a roommate is successfully evicted, then they will be removed from the lease and the remaining roommate or roommates will continue to be responsible for paying rent and abiding by the lease terms.
