Q: How to get ejection form started
Someone is living in their mobile home on our property with no lease and no payments. They have been given a 30day verbal to move and then a 10 day notarized written to which they ignored both. How do we proceed to get them off the property
A:
Alabama has a self-help law for landlords. Its easy for you to file your own eviction proceeding.
Just visit the Office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court in your county, ask for an eviction form (the official name of which is an unlawful detainer form), fill it out, give it back to the Clerk with the fee (which I believe is $297.00) and then be in court when the case is set, which the Clerk will explain to you.
WARNING: I am not your lawyer and providing you with the generic information, definition, clarification or explanation you seek about a legal matter on this anonymous forum does not make me your lawyer. By answering your question I am only trying to provide you with general information that will deepen your understanding of the legal concept that appears to be an issue for you, that will hopefully guide you in selecting and communicating with a lawyer of your choosing. The reason for all this is that legal problems are intensely fact-driven, and it is impossible to give anyone correct legal advice without comprehensive inquiry by the lawyer into the specific facts of the situation that concerns you, and the law of the jurisdiction in which you reside, and that is impossible to accomplish through this website. Even though I am not your lawyer, if I should later become your lawyer no representation is made that the quality of the legal services to be performed is greater than the quality of legal services performed by other lawyers.
