Q: Can landlord/employer come into your home and take all your belongings
My landlord /boss and I had a falling out so I decided just to move out.ss I'm moving landlord /boss comes and takes all my property and personal belongings
A:
No. This is an invasion of your right to privacy and your rights as a tenant. If you can afford a retainer you should probably hire an attorney. It may be difficult to find an attorney who will take this case on a contingency basis but it is possible. If you have limited income you may qualify for free legal assistance. If you contact the legal services agency in your area they may be able to provide free advice and refer you to a pro bono attorney who practice in the local jurisdiction.
I wish you success in recovering your belongings. It's regrettable you have to deal with this situation.
