The eviction process in Florida is highly regimented, and is governed by statutory and contractual law. While a landlord is permitted to file an eviction action, and prosecute the action on their own behalf, the presence of an attorney will ensure that all procedural steps are correctly taken, and the eviction moves forward as smoothly as possible. If you choose to file an eviction action yourself, the Clerk of the Court may be able to provide you with documents to help you through the process.
