Largo, FL asked in Real Estate Law for Florida

Q: What kind of lawyer do I see and what is a reasonable charge to complete an Unlawful Detainer?

I rent. I'm the only one on the lease. Been here 7 years. My boyfriend refuses to leave after being asked multiple times, and is receiving mail. He is not listed on any bills either. His name only appears on his personal mail such as bank statements.

Please contact me: email: latinanproud1 at yahoo

A: You need to consult with a landlord / tenant attorney in your area. As for price, I have no idea what the rates would be in that area.

A: No one can contact you directly that is against the lawyer ethics code. And you need to find someone in your area, not halfway across the state. Any landlord/tenant or real estate lawyer should be able to do an unlawful detainer. Iw ould not expect anywhere under $1,000 with filing costs.
