NSLAC’s Client was the sole provider for their partner and two children. Because they worked a seasonal job, their income dropped significantly during the colder months. During one of these periods of financial hardship, the family received an eviction order stating that the sheriff would remove them from their mobile home within weeks.
Determined to keep their family housed, the Client turned to NSLAC for help. NSLAC attorneys quickly filed a motion to overturn the eviction order and successfully challenged it. They then negotiated with the property owner to reach a more favorable resolution while keeping the Client informed throughout the process and ensuring they understood their available options.
Although the property owner was unwilling to dismiss the case without payment, NSLAC negotiated a settlement that gave the family time to move forward. As part of the agreement, the case was sealed, protecting the Client's housing record and helping preserve future housing opportunities. Through legal representation and advocacy, NSLAC helped the family achieve a more stable outcome during a time of financial hardship.
