Eminent Domain Cases Can Arise Anywhere

At the law firm of Sever Storey, we know that condemnation cases can happen anywhere in the United States. The government and private companies are constantly proposing and initiating new projects of all types that may require the use of private lands. Whether you live in a city or rural area, own a business, farm, or rental property, or simply own a home, your property may be the subject of eminent domain.

To best help landowners protect their rights under the Fifth Amendment and state law, our firm serves clients nationwide and has offices in multiple states. We constantly work on cases involving various major projects, and the following are some examples of the ways with which we help affected landowners. If your land may be involved in any of the following or you are facing eminent domain for any other reason, please do not hesitate to contact our office for a consultation.

Some of the above projects may only affect a handful of landowners, while others are major undertakings that involve hundreds of private properties. No matter how big or small a project, any landowners who may have their property threatened should always consult with a law firm that understands and upholds landowner rights in takings cases.

If the government or a company wants to take part or all of your land, you have options. You can agree to the offer, though you should always have an attorney review it first. You can have your attorney negotiate for the price you truly deserve for your land. In some situations, you may even fight against the taking altogether.
