An illegal eviction is a serious criminal offence.
Unlawful eviction occurs when your landlord or someone acting on their behalf forces you to leave your home without following the correct legal procedures. If you don’t live with your landlord then the only way they can legally evict you is with a court order.
Your landlord may attempt to illegally evict you by:
- Changing the locks when you are out
- Physically throwing you out
- Preventing you from getting into part or all of your home
- Removing your belongings from the property
- Threatens you or forces you to leave
These are all criminal offences and if your landlord has or has tried to illegally evict you they may face serious penalties, including the possibility of imprisonment.
