Summary Process Summons and Complaint

Eviction Process Notary Services: Ensuring Legal Compliance in Massachusetts

In Massachusetts, it's illegal for landlords to remove tenants and their belongings from a rented property without first obtaining a court order. This court order is secured through a legal procedure known as summary process, or eviction. As a professional notary, I provide comprehensive support to landlords navigating this process, ensuring all documents are accurately notarized and legally compliant.

Steps to a Legal Eviction Process:

1. Notice to Quit: The landlord issues a formal notice to the tenant, specifying the reason for eviction and the timeframe for vacating the premises.
2. Filing a Complaint: If the tenant does not vacate the property by the specified date, the landlord files a Summary Process Summons & Complaint with the court.
3. Serving the Tenant: The landlord serves the tenant with the court summons and complaint, notifying them of the court date.
4. Court Hearing: Both parties attend the court hearing, where the landlord presents their case for eviction.
5. Judgment: If the court rules in favor of the landlord, an execution for possession is issued, allowing the landlord to legally remove the tenant.
6. Execution of Eviction: The landlord, with the assistance of a sheriff or constable, carries out the eviction as per the court order.
