Evictions

$100 per case,
plus court costs

We provide personal service and careful work on every case. For over 20 years we’ve helped landlords remove tenants who stopped paying or are living there unlawfully. Fair prices and real value are why our customers keep coming back.

One fee covers every step:

  1. Unlawful detainer

    We type your eviction complaint, file it with the court and have your tenant served.

  2. Default

    If the tenant doesn’t respond in time, we enter a default on your behalf.

  3. Writ of possession

    We obtain the court’s writ of possession, which lets the sheriff return the property to you.

  4. Sheriff’s lockout

    We arrange the lockout with the sheriff, the final step in getting your property back.

Same-day service. No appointment needed. Call, email or stop by the office to start your case.

An estimate only. Our fee starts at $85, and court costs are set by the court.

Pay by the case, not by the hour.

A tenant who stops paying is expensive enough. We keep our costs as low as we can and pass the savings on to you.

Attorneys rarely charge flat rates. Most cover a set amount of work, then bill as much as $350 an hour. Many of our clients save anywhere from $700 to $1,500 by starting with us instead.

Many of our cases go uncontested. When that happens, no attorney is needed and you never enter a courtroom.

If your case does go before a judge, hiring an attorney is completely up to you. You can also appear in pro per.* Other eviction companies offer a trial attorney too, but they typically charge $350 to $450 per appearance.
