Evictions API

Evictions API — public examples

Hand your eviction paperwork to your AI agent. A licensed attorney reviews it before anything is served or filed.

Evictions API (operated by Future Cities LLC) is a REST API and MCP server for starting and tracking a residential eviction case in any US state or DC. Evictions API is not a law firm and does not give legal advice.

Fees (real cases)

Platform fee: $29 when a case starts at the notice stage; $99 in total through filing (the $29 is credited). A case that starts at filing pays $99 once. The attorney’s legal fee and court and service costs are separate: they are quoted before any work begins and you approve them first. The legal fee is paid to the attorney. The API and test mode are free.

If no attorney is engaged within 5 business days of submission, the platform fee is refunded in full. We do not promise outcomes or how long a case takes.

Quickstart (test mode, fictional state ZZ)

1. Sign up and copy a free test key (eak_test_…): https://evictionsapi.com/signup?next=/app/get-started
2. Set environment variables:

export EVICTIONS_API_URL=https://api.evictionsapi.comexport EVICTIONS_API_KEY=eak_test_...

3. Run one of the examples:

Test mode uses the fictional state ZZ. Nothing is served or filed, and nothing reaches a real tenant, attorney, or court. In test mode a built-in sandbox reviewer and adapters move the case; call POST /v1/cases/{id}/advance until the state is closed.

Live mode uses a real property state. After you submit, we engage a licensed attorney in that state for the case. Nothing is served or filed until that attorney has reviewed it. Live keys are created only by an organization owner, signed in on the site.
