@Lynette Croschere, you do NOT want "creative" ideas for eviction. You want to follow the laws, which are decidedly uncreative.

Speak to a local attorney who specialized in evictions. Don't try to save a dollar and end up costing yourself months of time. The judge won't look kindly on your creative eviction, and some states even make you pay triple damages to the wronged party.

Don't get creative, follow the laws. Have an attorney help you out. Maybe @Dawn Anastasi or @Ramon Jenkins have a recommendation for an eviction attorney?

    Lynette,

    The above postings are so right -- do not get creative.  Wisconsin requires strict adherence to a process, including a schedule of notices that you must give.  If the schedule is not strictly followed, your eviction action will be tossed out.  Wisconsin also changed its landlord-tenant law a couple years ago, which included changes to what you can do as a landlord to tenant property.

    I can give you attorney referrals too if necessary.  Good luck. 

    Tim

    Lynette, where is the property located?  Makes all the difference.  Florida is a landlord friendly state.

    PS:  after making my post I realized the property is in Wisconsin.  Damn these 3 martini lunches!

    @Lynette Croschere from what you said this is not a regular tenant, they have an ownership interest in the property?
