Re: legal eviction

You must go to Court to have the Judge determine who gets possession of the apartment. The Court will consider many factors, including the incomes of each party, whose name is on the lease, and whether there's been any fault on either side.

These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.

If you need more information, you can visit my family law blog (www.SCFamilyLaw.com) or our website (www.StevensFirm.com). I wish you the best of luck.
