Yes! Based on your facts provided, you seem to have an excellent case for damages. A landlord does not have the right to remove your property unless they have gone through a proper eviction. Your lease or lack thereof has no bearing on this. Even if some time has passed since this occurrence, you still might be able to seek damages.
