If there is a written lease that includes your daughter, she needs to pursue the rights she has under that agreement and Arizona landlord tenant law. If there is no agreement, she may still have rights under the Arizona landlord tenant law and a 30 day eviction notice may be required to legally remove your daughter. If there is no landlord/tenant relationship that has been legally established, then the owner could lock your daughter out.
Due to the domestic violence, however, is your daughter safer elsewhere? Even if she is subject to a written lease or oral lease, Arizona landlord tenant law has provisions that let her break the lease with minimal penalties.
If the homeowner does not know the law or wants to deliberately ignore the law, she might change the locks and now your daughter has to figure out how she will get her belongings and where she will reside. She could use civil court to get belongings returned, but that takes time.
My firm handles domestic violence, landlord tenant, and civil matters related to a couple separating.
