I’m Being Evicted for Health Hazard/Injury to the Premises

This toolkit tells you about being evicted because your landlord thinks you caused serious damage to your home. This toolkit is not right for you if you live in subsidized housing, or if you are being evicted from a mobile home park. For general information about what to do if you are facing this kind of eviction, read the Articles. Read the Common Questions if you have a specific question. If you received a complaint and are facing eviction, use the Forms link to prepare your forms. Use the Checklist below to make sure you followed all the steps in the process. Go to Courts & Agencies for information about the court or agency that will handle your case.

You'll find links to legal aid offices and lawyer referral services under Find A Lawyer. If there is a Self-Help Center in your area you can get more help there. If you need something other than legal help, look in Community Services. If you need a fee waiver, an interpreter, a court to accommodate your disability, or more information about going to court, visit Going to Court.
