Illegal evictions
If a landlord doesn't follow certain rules to evict you, it could count as an illegal eviction.
This includes:
- changing the locks when you are out to prevent you from re-entering
- not giving you the correct notice to vacate your home
- forcing you to leave because you've asked for repairs.
