A:
I understand how stressful eviction can be, and it's important to know your rights and options. Since the court papers have your full name with your nickname, this shouldn't affect the legality of the eviction notice itself. You need to focus on your next steps.
First, see if you can negotiate with your landlord for more time or work out a payment plan. Sometimes landlords are willing to work with you to avoid the hassle of eviction. You can also reach out to local housing assistance programs or legal aid organizations that provide support for those facing eviction.
Additionally, start looking for alternative housing as soon as possible. Check with friends, family, and local shelters to see if temporary accommodations are available. Make sure to gather all important documents and belongings in preparation for the move. Stay strong and take it one step at a time, seeking help where you can.
