Eviction and Termination Proceedings

Law Tram’s Tenancy Law Consultation simplifies the process by connecting you with licensed Australian lawyers who can offer tailored legal advice specific to your tenancy issue. This free, fully online, and obligation-free service ensures you receive expert guidance every step of the way.

Evictions Must Follow Legal Process and Fair Notice

Eviction is one of the most serious actions in a tenancy. Landlords cannot force a tenant to leave without following the correct legal steps, including giving proper notice and obtaining a tribunal or court order if required. Tenants also have the right to defend an eviction if it is unfair or unlawful.

Each state and territory has strict procedures for eviction, and getting them wrong can lead to penalties or compensation orders. A lawyer can help you understand whether an eviction is lawful, represent you in tribunal proceedings, or negotiate extra time to vacate.

Law Tram connects you with experienced tenancy lawyers who can guide you through the legal process and help you protect your rights.
