An evictions attorney will do this correctly

As a landlord or tenant in New Jersey, you must know how your tenancy is classified. This matters because the process of eviction changes depending on classification. Your New Jersey evictions lawyer will:

• Know every eviction law in New Jersey. This ensures you are protected every step of the way.
• Review every aspect of the lease agreement between the landlord and tenant.
• Ensure that the eviction notice is legal and that all time frames are upheld.
• Draft every document related to an eviction case for a landlord or the responses to these documents for the tenant.

Evictions must be done properly

How is your property classified? If your property is classified as an “owner-occupant” with fewer than three rentals, then the landlord can remove the tenant without “good cause.” However, all other tenancies in New Jersey are covered under the Eviction for Good Cause Law (Anti-Eviction Act). Good causes can include:

• Failing to pay rent
• Damaging the property
• Breaking the rules listed in the lease agreement
• Committing criminal activity on the property
• And more

No notice is required for evictions if the tenant fails to pay rent as long as the landlord does not have a pattern of accepting habitually late payments from the tenant.

In some cases, a three-day notice to quit is required if the tenant displays disorderly conduct, destroys the landlord’s property, is convicted of a drug crime, or assaults/threatens the landlord.

A thirty-day notice to quit can be given if the tenant continues to violate the terms of the lease or rental agreement after repeated warnings from the landlord.

It’s crucial to have all information locked in under the tenant’s lease. However, if there is a breach in the contract, contact our New Jersey lease attorney. We will help create a case that allows your eviction process.
