How Locksmiths Help with Marshal Eviction?

June 20, 2023

Marshal evictions are one of those things that no one really looks forward to. It is a major headache for both the landlord, and needless to say, to the tenant! Locksmiths are aware of this often frequent situation, and play a crucial role that you will soon find out. 

 

It may be that there are horrible tenants that trash the property of their landlord, are too loud, and come home intoxicated most of the time. It is needless to say why the landlord wants to evict them.The same thing is if they are one of those people that lie low, and may be the best tenant otherwise; but are engaged in illegal activities. In which case it might not just be enough to evict the person, but get them arrested too. 

 

However; in most regular cases; and this is becoming very familiar due to the recent COVID pandemic; marshal evictions will usually take place for people who simply fail to pay the rent in full for some months in a row. This is not the type of person that a landlord would otherwise want to evict. But in this case evictions become a necessary evil for the landlord. 

Tenancies can be also ended if the landlord does not want to renew the lease. The notice given for this ranges from 30 to 90 days. 

 

The Marshals themselves only act in accordance with the court. They first request the Warrant of Eviction from the Civil Court.   An authorized officer must first serve a Notice of Eviction before executing the Warrant of Eviction .This needs to be done on a visible and obvious area of the rented space. The working period of such a warrant is usually within a week (6 days) after the mailing date. In the eviction process, the belongings of the tenant are supposed to be safeguarded and not harmed. 

 

The usual practice of securing the property after the landlord has successfully evicted the tenant, is for the Marshal to put up a padlock on the property. However, this is only a temporary solution. 

 

For long-term security, and to deter the tenant from ever breaking into the house again, there must be a more permanent solution. The Brothers Locksmith is tasked with solving this issue. They usually accompany the eviction Marshal himself to immediately change the lock on the door or rekey the lock as a security precaution. 

 

Now, since the entire eviction process needs to take place within a 24 hour time frame, the key to a successful Marshal eviction locksmith is one that can carry out the whole process of rekeying and changing the lock frame of the property within those 24 hours!
