In this episode of Eviction Defense Basics, Zara explains the immediate actions needed when an eviction filing arrives. Identify the exact state-flagged notice type to understand your response rules, count answer deadlines from the printed date, and prepare court documents correctly. Habitability defenses allow rent reductions for unsafe conditions when supported by dated photos and repair logs. Right-to-counsel cities provide free lawyers—call the housing help line or visit the self-help desk to confirm eligibility by zip code. File answers promptly via courthouse or online portal with clear facts and attachments, then track every document to avoid late additions.

Key takeaways:
- Match notice wording to deadlines and forms for timely filing.
- Attach evidence of repairs to support habitability claims.
- Request counsel early in qualifying cities to negotiate or delay hearings.
