If your landlord forces you to vacate without proper notice, you may seek compensation for stress and hospitalization. Document all interactions and consider filing complaints for illegal eviction, harassment, and breach of agreement. Contact local legal aid for guidance. If locked out, report to authorities and seek immediate legal help. Landlords generally need a business permit to rent property.
