What Is Eminent Domain Law in Idaho?

Eminent domain law in Idaho gives the government and some private groups the right to take private land and use it for public purposes. This might include the building of pipelines, roads, government buildings, parks, and more.

Unfortunately, some condemnors abuse this power and get away with actions outside the bounds of law. But an eminent domain attorney in Idaho can hold condemnors accountable and make sure they treat landowners as fairly as possible in any eminent domain case.

What Should Landowners Do After Receiving an Eminent Domain Notice in Idaho?

You’ve received that dreaded eminent domain notice—your Idaho land is being taken. Now what? While it’s tempting to stay paralyzed in a state of shock and frustration, it’s crucial to act quickly. Every minute could make a difference in the outcome of your case. Here’s what to do if you get an eminent domain notice in Idaho:

 - Get in touch with a lawyer: Call an eminent domain lawyer before doing anything else related to your case. They’ll guide you through the process and know exactly what steps should be taken to get the best results.

 - Learn more about your rights: Landowners have rights, too. Your attorney can teach you about your rights to ensure you receive justice.

 - Let your lawyer negotiate: Though it’s tempting to dive into negotiations on your own, it’s always wise to let an experienced attorney take the lead.

Eminent Domain Just Compensation in Idaho

Idaho’s eminent domain law states that every landowner should receive just compensation—or a monetary exchange—when their land is condemned. However, many government and private groups end up offering far less than the land is worth, short-changing the unassuming landowner. Don’t let that happen to you! Hire the right lawyer to fight for the true value of your land.

Eminent Domain Relocation Costs

Reestablishing a business or home involves many expenses, from moving vans and packing supplies to taking time off work. Landowners are entitled to relocation benefits to pay for these expenses, but many condemnors greatly underestimate the true cost of relocation. Luckily, a lawyer can fight for greater compensation in this area as well.

What Are the Limits of Eminent Domain in Idaho?

Several factors limit eminent domain in Idaho. According to state law, condemnors must:
- Give notice to landowners.
- Provide a copy of the land appraisal.
- Notify landowners of court dates.
- Negotiate compensation.

How Long Do Eminent Domain Cases Take in Idaho?

Eminent domain cases in Idaho may stretch out anywhere from a couple of months to a full year or more. The timeline depends on whether the case requires litigation, the nature of the case, etc.

Can Eminent Domain in Idaho Be Stopped?

No, it is uncommon for eminent domain in Idaho to be stopped. But it’s still important to have an eminent domain attorney on your side. Why? Only an experienced lawyer can help you get greater compensation, relocation benefits, and justice in your case.
