[WSBARP] Adult Child in Basement

[Danielle Flatt]

Maureen,

Generally, if it's to the point where Mom needs a lawyer to remove the
child, it's going to be messy.  Sometimes a Cash-for-Keys agreement will
work, and cash is conditioned upon the child moving out all their stuff and
handing over the keys.  Parent has to promptly change locks.

Other times, the parent has to use the threat of litigation and serve an
unlawful detainer. As part of the settlement, the parent agrees not to file
in court and pay the child upon moveout.  Incentive for child is money, and
not having an eviction on their rental record.  If an unlawful detainer
fits your facts, that might have to be your route.
