Frequently Asked Questions

Every landowner is entitled to “just compensation” from their condemner. So what exactly does this term mean? Legally, just compensation is a monetary exchange that is equal to or greater than the market value of the land. But unfortunately, many unknowing landowners walk away with less compensation than they deserve. A skilled attorney can help landowners get the greatest possible compensation for their land.

Relocating a home or business can be extremely expensive, which is why landowners are entitled to eminent domain relocation costs paid by their condemner. Yet, the courts often underestimate or do not fully consider these costs, meaning landowners do not receive the full benefits. Again, it’s crucial to have an eminent domain attorney to fight for these benefits.

Contrary to what it may seem, condemners are limited by eminent domain law in Arizona. According to the state, condemners must:
– Give adequate notice of eminent domain
– Provide a copy of the appraisal
– Inform the landowner of eminent domain proceedings
– Provide just compensation and negotiate the offer

Eminent domain cases can take anywhere from a few months to a year or more, depending on the nature of the case. Typically, cases that involve litigation take much longer than cases that do not.

It is very rare for eminent domain to be fully stopped in Arizona. A lawyer would have to prove the condemner is not using the land for a public purpose or has broken the law in some other way. However, having the right eminent domain lawyer will still play a vital role in securing greater compensation and more generous relocation benefits.
