Eviction Process Lm3381

[LM3381]

I need to evict my 18 year old son in Richmond County and was informed that before I file the Dispossessory, I must give 60 days notice which can be verbal. Is this correct?

You can do a google search & read up on the eviction laws in the state of Georgia.

Verbal notice is probably not sufficient.
Your county courthouse can likely provide you with documentation regarding the proper procedure.

There are plenty of online resources specific to your state as well.

Welcome fellow Georgian (and fellow Richmond county resident!!!).

Yes; in Georgia the statute only requires that "notice" be provided without specifying that this need be in writing. However, it is always good to provide this in writing so you have documentation of such.

What you are attempting to do is terminate a "tenancy at will" (I'm assuming) with your son (as opposed to asking him to leave due to a breach of lease) and in Georgia this does require that you give him 60 days to do so.
