We conduct the necessary legal procedures for tenant eviction.
Landlord can file eviction lawsuit if they need housing for themselves, spouse, descendants or ascendants.
Eviction through execution or court decision is possible. Process can take 3-12 months.
Under Code of Obligations arts. 350 ff., eviction may be sought for need (own, spouse, descendant, ascendant), reconstruction and zoning, unpaid rent (two valid warnings), the new owner's need, or the tenant's misuse. Each ground has its own notice and time requirements. The outcome depends on the specific evidence and the court's assessment; consult an attorney for your individual situation.
Where the tenant has given a written eviction undertaking after the lease was concluded, the landlord can file an eviction case or commence enforcement within one month of the date stated in the undertaking (Code of Obligations art. 352/1). The undertaking must not have been signed simultaneously with the lease, or it is void. The outcome depends on the specific evidence and the court's assessment; consult an attorney for your individual situation.
