Arizona's eviction firm for property owners.
For over thirty years we have litigated the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act for owners, managers, and mobile home and RV park operators statewide.
Protecting the investment.
A rental property is often the largest asset a client owns. When rent stops or a lease is breached, timing and precision decide the outcome. A defective notice restarts the clock; a well-served one ends the problem.
We handle every stage: notices, special detainer actions, immediate evictions, abandonment recovery, writs of restitution, and post-judgment collection. Property managers across the Valley send us their entire eviction caseload.
The judgment is paper. We make it money.
Winning the eviction is half the job. The judgment for back rent, fees, and costs still has to be collected — and most firms stop at the courthouse door.
We handle post-judgment enforcement as part of the practice: wage and bank garnishments, judgment recording, and payment agreements that hold up. If the tenant has income or assets in Arizona, the judgment can work for you.
The statutes most firms never open.
Mobile home parks operate under A.R.S. Title 33, Ch. 11 and long-term RV spaces under A.R.S. Title 33, Ch. 19 — separate acts with different notice periods, different termination rules, and different traps. A residential notice served in a park case is a case lost.
We represent park owners and management companies across Arizona, from Flagstaff to the Valley, in evictions, rule enforcement, abandonment, and park sales.
The Arizona eviction process, step by step.
Notice is served A.R.S. § 33-1368
The correct written notice — 5-day, 10-day, or immediate, depending on the breach — is delivered to the tenant. Service method matters: notice by certified mail is deemed received five days after mailing.
The notice period runs
The tenant has the stated period to pay, cure, or vacate. Accepting partial payment without a non-waiver agreement can reset everything.
The special detainer is filed A.R.S. § 33-1377
If the breach isn't cured, we file in the justice court with jurisdiction over the property. The court sets trial three to six judicial days after the summons issues.
Judgment and writ of restitution
After judgment for the landlord, the writ of restitution may issue five calendar days later — sooner for immediate and irreparable breaches — and the constable restores possession.
Post-judgment recovery
The judgment for rent, fees, and costs doesn't have to sit in a drawer. We garnish wages and bank accounts and record judgments against other property.
