An attorney may not make false or misleading communication about the attorney or the attorney’s services.  This includes unsubstantiated comparison of the attorney’s services or fees with the services or fees of other lawyers.

The term “fast track” is simply used to refer to a litigation strategy and does not indicate the attorney can obtain results faster than other lawyers employing the same litigation strategy.

Fast Track Eviction

If you want to save time and out of pocket expenses overall, schedule a show cause hearing at the beginning of the eviction process. It costs more up front, but it can save time.

If the tenant wants to have a hearing, the tenant is legally entitled to a day in court. By simply responding to the summons, even if the defense is not meritorious, the tenant can delay the process by forcing the necessity of a hearing.

By noting the hearing at the beginning, you save approximately ten days.

If there is a hearing, the fees and costs are the same whether you chose a “pay-as-you-go” or “fast-track” strategy.  But with the former if the tenant answers the complaint it will be almost inevitably at the last moment.

To avoid this delay tactic, file the summons and complaint and schedule the hearing at the beginning of the process.

Also, note that the Fast Track Eviction deposit does not include serving the summons and complaint by posting and mailing should we not be able to obtain personal service.  Alternative service is sometimes unavoidable and is legally required if person service cannot be accomplished.
