Evicting a tenant when the property is in bankruptcy.
I filed bankruptcy in Nevada in May, and I need to evict the tenants in two of my homes that are included in the bankruptcy. Can an eviction service do this, or does the bankruptcy trustee have to do it?

If you're going to lose the rental houses, then the bankruptcy trustee or the eventual purchasers of the property would do that. You may not have grounds for removing the tenants, but a new owner would not have the same problem.
There may be unique facts to your case that might be important here. For advice you can rely on, it's always best to have your entire case reviewed by a lawyer in your area. One place to find qualified counsel is our website, http://attorneypages.com
