Eviction Actions

Handling Eviction Issues For Landlords and Tenants

An eviction action is a legal action in which a landlord files a request to the court to determine if the tenant should be evicted, or if he or she has a legal right to remain on the property. In Connecticut, an eviction is known as "summary process."

At Mark Sank & Associates, LLC, we assist both landlords and tenants dealing with difficult landlord / tenant issues.

For Landlords

• Has your tenant broken a lease?
• Has a tenant stayed in the rental property after he or she has been told to leave?
• Has a tenant refused to pay rent on time?

In order for a tenant to be evicted, a summary process must be commenced by way of a Notice to Quit. Our lawyers assist landlords in protecting their property rights, and taking steps in pursuing eviction.

Any number of situations can warrant a tenant's eviction. We frequently handle cases involving tenants who do not pay rent, tenants who violate the terms of a lease, and tenants who damage the premises on which they live.

For Tenants

• Do you disagree with a complaint made by your landlord?
• Do you believe that you shouldn't be evicted?
• Do you need more time to settle your affairs before your required move-out?

Our attorneys assist tenants in dealing with difficult eviction/summary process matters. If a tenant has a dispute with the actions of a landlord, the issue has to be settled in court. If a tenant receives an eviction notice, he or she can stay in the premises for five days. This is known as a Stay of Execution.
