What do you do after you get an eviction notice?

Immediately contact the landlord to make payment arrangements. Most landlords will stop an eviction if a tenant will work in good faith to pay the rent due. If the landlord insists that you leave, you should answer the eviction complaint (if you have been served one) and contact an attorney or tenant's rights group in your area.

You may also be able to dispute the eviction notice on the grounds that it was improperly served (not directly served to you as the tenant), not worded clearly, or did not provide sufficient time for you to respond. If you are in low-income housing or receive housing assistance, you may have further recourse against an eviction notice. The eviction process is very detailed and landlords must adhere to strict standards when serving an eviction notice.

For assistance with disputing eviction procedures or an eviction in general, you should probably consult your lawyer or local legal resources.
