If you’re a landlord seeking an eviction for violations of lease agreement, expired lease, or nuisance, you have a few options.
As with nonpayment of rent, in order to evict for other reasons, you must begin by serving the notice that applies to your specific situation. At Legal Process Service, our eviction specialists work quickly and efficiently to ensure you comply with summary eviction protocols including drafting of notice, service of process, and the final step, lockout.
Choose your notice
- The Five (5) Day Notice for Violation of Lease Agreement or Quit (NRS 40.2516) is used by landlords who wish to evict a tenant who has violated the lease agreement in a manner other than a nuisance.
- The Three (3) Day Notice to Quit For Nuisance, Waste, Assignment/Subletting, Unlawful Business, or Drug Violation (NRS 40.2514) requires a written reason and/or description of the alleged nuisance(s).
Either of these options also requires the service of a second notice:
- The Five (5) Day Notice to Quit for Unlawful Detainer is to notify the tenant(s) that eviction will be the next step if they do not comply.

“If you are evicting for anything other than nonpayment of rent (nuisance or lease violation as examples), the landlord must serve a second eviction notice on the tenant (called a Five-Day Notice to Quit for Unlawful Detainer) if the tenant fails to comply with the first notice by remedying the lease violation or moving.
If the tenant does not comply with… the Five-Day Notice to Quit for Unlawful Detainer, you can file documents with the court for the township where the rental property is located to request an eviction order.”
