Landlord Representation & Evictions

Statutory compliance, enforceable notices, and evictions handled start to finish.

Counsel for Landlords, Before and During the Dispute

Premier Law represents residential and commercial landlords across Florida: individual owners, investors, and property management companies. The best eviction is the one your lease and your process prevented, so our representation starts with compliant leases and notice practices and extends through the courtroom when a tenancy fails.

Florida eviction procedure is unforgiving about the details. A defective notice, a miscounted deadline, or accepting rent at the wrong moment can restart the entire process. We handle the sequence correctly the first time.

Process Discipline

Evictions are won on procedure. Notices, service, filing, and timelines handled by counsel who does this routinely.

How a Florida Eviction Proceeds

A residential eviction begins with the statutorily required notice: a 3-day notice for nonpayment of rent, or a 7-day notice for other lease violations. If the tenant does not cure or vacate, suit is filed in county court, and the tenant must respond within a short statutory window and generally must deposit disputed rent into the court registry to contest the case.

Handled correctly, an uncontested residential eviction moves quickly. Handled incorrectly, each defect resets the clock. Commercial evictions follow their own track with more room for lease-driven remedies, including termination, damages, and recovery of the premises.
