Before Court
If one of your residents files an Answer, the Court will set a hearing. At that point, our Team will update the online system to reflect the court date and time, and you will receive an automated notification email. You will also be contacted by one of our attorneys before court to prepare and discuss any issues.
We encourage you to email your processor and/or attorneys with any questions and all pertinent information well before court, so that they may prepare your case thoroughly. This is especially important if you know that the tenant has issues that they intend to bring up in court.
In order to ensure that all of your cases are handled properly and to reduce the risk of errors, please direct all correspondence regarding your cases to our office. Please do not contact the Court or our eviction software partner regarding your cases.
Likewise, generally the Court should not contact you since you are represented by counsel. However, if anyone from the Court or Clerk’s office contacts you, please respectfully redirect them to our Firm and also let us know!
We are here for you and will do everything needed to help you successfully file and process your evictions. Please be sure to communicate with us so that we can do our job most effectively for you.
Day of Court
After receiving updated documents from you and having communicated with you about the case, our attorneys are generally able to appear and handle the hearings on their own without you present in Court.
However, sometimes there are issues with cases and an attorney may request that you appear as a witness. If that’s the case, then it is important that you appear with the entire resident file on the date of Court. One of our attorneys will let you know what to bring, and where to be in that instance. After Court, one of our staff members will update the system with the case results and will advise you on the outcome of the hearing.
