Are you fearing or at risk of eviction?

Eviction is a process. YOU DO NOT NEED TO LEAVE YOUR HOME IMMEDIATELY IF YOU RECEIVE AN EVICTION NOTICE. STAY IN YOUR HOME.

Landlords locking out, intimidating, or evicting tenants outside of the court process are against the law.

If you receive a notice to “Pay or Quit”

From October 1st, 2021 and March 31st, 2022, the law requires landlords wanting to evict a tenant for failing to pay rent as a result of COVID-19 hardship to first apply for rental assistance before proceeding with an eviction.

Even if you receive this notice, your landlord will not be able to legally evict you without first applying for California's COVID-19 Rent Relief program.

If you receive a 3 day notice

Call Legal Services of Northern California at (707) 643-0054 to determine if the notice was served legally or not, and to determine your rights and how to protect them.

DO NOT SELF-EVICT. The only person that can remove you from your home is the sheriff, and that is only after the eviction process has gone through the courts.
