Missouri Eviction Law

Just a few of the types of landlord / tenant litigation include:

• Expedited evictions (filed by landlords against clients using illegal drugs, damaging property or threatening bodily harm)
• Rent and possession (filed by landlords against clients for unpaid rent)
• Unlawful detainer (filed by landlords against clients for staying after leases run out)
• Contract actions (filed by landlords against clients who have already left but owe the landlord compensation for damages or unpaid rent)

Unlike other states, Missouri does not have a comprehensive Landlord Tenant Act – the laws are a combination of many diverse laws and precedents. This makes it especially important to have a lawyer experienced in Missouri eviction law. When a case is lost, it is most often because the attorney wasn’t aware of an important technicality.

All evictions must be completed through court actions; a landlord cannot evict someone without going through the courts. Once a landlord has a notice, he or she merely has to “serve” it on the tenant, which simply means handing it to the tenant. The notice is then considered served regardless of whether the tenant accepts it or reads it.
