Our Verification Process and CriteriaAdverse possession occurs when a trespasser gains legal ownership of someone else’s property. That can happen in several ways under the law. The trespasser may merely occupy the land, such as a building belonging to a trespasser that has been on his neighbor’s property for a long time, by mistake, or other circumstances also can become adverse possession.
No matter how adverse possession occurs, it is in your best interest to consult a Killen lawyer who has handled adverse possession cases. The lawyer can assess the circumstances of the adverse possession to determine under the law if you have a case.
Specialized legal help is available for most legal issues. Each case is unique; seeking legal help is a smart first step toward understanding your legal situation and seeking the best path toward resolution for your case. An experienced lawyer understands the local laws surrounding your case and what your best legal options might be. More importantly, there are certain situations and circumstances – such as being charged with a crime – where you should always seek experienced legal help.
An experienced lawyer should be able to communicate a basic “road map” on how to proceed. The lawyer should be able to walk you through the anticipated process, key considerations, and potential pitfalls to avoid. Once you’ve laid out the facts of your situation to the lawyer, he/she should be able to frame expectations and likely scenarios to help you understand your legal issue.
