You should ignore this lawyer's advice

It all started innocent enough...

A Legal Plan Member called to confirm he was right.

He was showing the Legal Plan to a friend.

Shared how he chats with yours truly (without getting billed).

And that he feels safe using Illinois' most up-to-date lease.

Yada yada yada. 

When outta the blue, his buddy shouted:

"Well MY lawyer said to never use a 5-Day Notice when a Tenant doesn't pay - it never works!  30-Day Notices are the best!"

* scratches head *

Not sure where that came from, but ok...

Since we're talking about it, that's sounds a tad... dumb.

Because it is.

When you need to evict a Tenant, the 5-Day, 10-Day and 30-Day Notices all work.

So long as you use the right one.

And follow the rules.
