Landlord/tenant issues often arise suddenly and need to be resolved just as quickly. For this reason, landlord/tenant cases are adjudicated in a much faster process than regular civil litigation. If a tenant is served with an eviction notice, only 5-days is afforded for a response. Hearings are usually held within 20-days. If you foresee a problem, it is best to consult with an attorney as soon as possible, preferably before any action is filed with the courts. This is true for both landlords and tenants.
