Eminent Domain & Condemnation Attorneys – Iowa
What Is Eminent Domain Law In Iowa?
Eminent domain in Iowa is when a state, local, federal, or utility group takes away the property of a landowner for a public purpose. Keep in mind, however, eminent domain is the right to take the land, while condemnation refers to the actual taking of the land. Any private land can be condemned, including retail space, farmland, a private home, and more.
