Q: I'm trying to get rid of my ex who won't leave my residence. I've asked him since MAY to leave and he won't
He continues to bring more of his belongings into the house. He uses his mother's mailing address, he doesn't have my address on his ID, he is not on my lease, and he has never paid any rent
I'm on disability, and don't have much $ to go around. How do I get rid of this person for cheap?
I reside in Ohio.
I even found out he has domestic violence priors, and priors for theft. He breaks into my home while I'm sitting here with the doors locked. :-(
A: He will have to be evicted. Some courts require the landlord to file an eviction, others allow a tenant to evict an occupant. Check the local court web site for the eviction process, or use the Find a Lawyer tab to retain a local attorney to assist you, since it is likely to become an uncomfortable situation for you.
