These proceedings can be complex and fast-moving, so having a specialist lawyer is essential to ensure all legal safeguards are met and your interests are protected.
What is an eviction procedure?
Eviction is the court process by which a landlord seeks the recovery of a property due to breach of the lease, unpaid rent, or any other legally established cause.
It can lead to:
Recovery of the property by the landlord.
Payment of outstanding rent or compensation for damages.
Court enforcement of the eviction, in the event of removal.

Yes, through negotiation, out-of-court agreements or by raising legal grounds for opposition. A specialist lawyer can assess the best strategy.
