If your ex-girlfriend is refusing to voluntarily leave the house where you live, then you will have to begin the process of an eviction to legally remove her from your house. Depending on a number of factors, you will start by preparing and handing her with an appropriate 'notice to quit.' According to California law, this notice must contain certain specific language which legally notifies her of your intent to terminate her right to remain at your home. Once the time period indicated in said notice expires and if your girlfriend still remains at your home, then you have to file an unlawful detainer action (eviction) at your local county superior court. The process of an eviction action from that point forward is one that an experienced real estate/eviction attorney can assist you with to its successful conclusion where a county sheriff would remove her from the home.

If you are interested in speaking with and/or hiring a competent eviction attorney that can assist you with this matter, contact our office at (888) 790-5053 to schedule a no-obligation consultation with an attorney, and/or visit our website at www.coronacalawyer.com.
