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 Town Creek 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.
In legal practice, experience matters. An experienced attorney will likely have handled issues similar to yours many, many times. Therefore, after listening to your situation, the attorney should have a reasonable idea of the time line for a case like yours and the likely resolution.
