[AL] How can an elderly homeowner evict non-paying houseguests without a lease?

Dad is 93 and has poor eyesight. He let two women live in a room in his house for the last couple of years for company. They never paid rent and have stolen thousands from him. We’re in Alabama. He asked me, his daughter, to help evict them. I found a form, but I’m confused about the process.

[AL] Was my purchase of my mother’s property valid for Medicaid purposes?

We are applying for Medicaid for skilled nursing for my mom. She had this little property in Hamilton that is part of someone else’s yard. We couldn’t get a realtor to list it. I thought I could buy it from her for the appraised value of $1,040. I had an attorney’s office prepare the deed, my mom signed it with a notary present, and we filed it with the county. I paid my mom $1,040 with a personal check. I also paid the recording fee and taxes. Medicaid has now asked for a settlement statement.
