Commercial Evictions

Though evicting a tenant is never easy, it is important to uphold the standards of the commercial building for which you are a landlord in order to continue to attract qualified tenants.

Because evictions involve complex statutes and rules that landlords must follow, our landlord legal services team at Smith Knowles is here to help you with your commercial evictions. Just like residential tenants, commercial tenants must pay the agreed amount of rent on time. Commercial tenants must also usually pay common area maintenance (CAM) fees and other costs. Commercial tenants must also follow certain rules. If a tenant does not follow these rules or doesn’t pay the fees, you, as the landlord, have the right to evict the tenant from the building.

Notifying the Tenant

We understand that notifying tenants of an eviction is difficult, and that’s why we offer services that will provide written notice to your tenants before the eviction process begins. This gives tenants time to cure the problem or vacate the building before you escalate the matter. As per the Utah eviction laws, the tenant must have written notice so that they can refute the eviction.

Getting the Courts or Authorities Involved

In rare cases when the tenant refuses to leave or refutes the reasons for eviction, the eviction law specialists at our Utah landlord legal services team can work with you to either get the authorities involved or to take the case to court. If the case goes to court, we promise to represent you in such a way that gives you a better chance of having the case turn out in your favor. If you are having a difficult time with a tenant or are not getting the rent or CAM fee payments that you and the commercial tenant agreed upon, let our landlord legal services attorneys know. We can walk you through the difficult eviction process and do all the hard work for you for a reasonable price.
