Eviction is the process of removing a tenant. This typically happens after continued lease violations and is not the same as simply terminating a lease, which can be done with proper notice from either the landlord or the tenant.

Landlords are not allowed to change locks or remove a tenant themselves, and they can get in a lot of legal trouble if they try to do so. Instead, we’ll show you how to evict a tenant in Connecticut with a Notice to Quit or through the court system.

We’re eForms, and we created this video to help you understand the process of evictions in Connecticut. We also made you official eviction forms specific to the state — complete one at the link above!
