FAQs About the Eviction Process
Tenant issues can be stressful. Here are answers to common questions landlords ask before starting the eviction process.
Can I evict a tenant without going to court?
No. Connecticut law requires all evictions to go through a formal court process, even if the tenant clearly violated the lease. Taking action like changing locks or shutting off utilities without a court order is illegal. We’ll help you stay fully compliant from start to finish.
How much notice do I have to give before evicting?
It depends on the reason for eviction. Nonpayment typically requires a 3-day notice, while other violations may require longer. We’ll help you prepare and serve the right notice based on your specific situation to avoid delays or dismissal.
What if the tenant fights the eviction?
If a tenant contests, the case will move to a hearing where evidence will be presented. Having clear records—like the lease, notices, and payment history—is critical. We represent landlords at hearings to help secure a legal judgment efficiently.
How long does the eviction process usually take?
Uncontested evictions can often be completed within 4–6 weeks. Contested cases may take longer, depending on court scheduling and tenant defenses. We help landlords minimize unnecessary delays and keep the process moving.
What happens after I win the eviction case?
If you win, a court order will authorize a state marshal to remove the tenant if they don't leave voluntarily. We coordinate with the marshal and ensure all post-judgment steps are handled legally and efficiently to regain possession of your property.
