We reached a favorable settlement that clarified property lines and avoided costly litigation.

The client discovered that a neighbor’s fence and shed were built partially on their property, leading to a dispute over the rightful boundary line.

Key challenges:

  • Establishing the exact property boundary.

  • Proving the encroachment and its impact on the client’s property.

  • Navigating neighborly relations while asserting property rights.

  • Addressing potential adverse possession claims by the neighbor.

  • Ensuring compliance with local zoning and property laws.

The legal team developed a precise strategy to legally establish the property boundary and enforce the removal of the encroaching structures.

Actions taken:

  • Commissioned a professional land survey to accurately determine the boundary line.

  • Collected historical property documents and maps to support the client’s claim.

  • Filed a lawsuit for trespass and encroachment against the neighbor.

  • Engaged in mediation to seek an amicable resolution before pursuing court action.

  • Legal arguments from the neighbor claiming adverse possession.

  • The need for accurate and convincing survey results.

  • Potential delays and costs associated with litigation.
