Nice to meet you, Ashley. Could you please describe the legal issue you're facing?
I live in Texas and i am being evicted. I am a month to month tenant, and I had already paid my rent 5 days before I got the eviction notice. I have been constantly harassed by my landlord and i have proof. Is there anything I can do?
Do you have a written lease agreement, Ashley? In Texas, landlords must provide at least one month's notice for month-to-month tenants. Harassment is also illegal.
