Bella: What are the laws for evicting an adult child from your home?
I want to know about laws on evicting adult children in Pa. The child doesn’t contribute to the household and can’t be lived with anymore. She has also decided that she isn’t going to move out on her own but that isn’t an option anymore. She’s over 18 and thinks she can’t get kicked out. I wanted to know where I can find more information on this. Thank you.

The laws on evicting an Adult child are the same as evicting any other adult, as sad as it is that you have to make this choice.
I believe you have to give her a months notice (not sure though, could be six weeks) and you have to present her with a formal letter of eviction. If she still doesn’t leave, and you’ve done the legal thing by giving her her notice & her eviction notice, you actually have the right to call the police and have her removed for trespassing. I really hope it doesn’t come to that, though.
