Boundary & Easement Disputes

Property lines aren’t always clear. Neighbors disagree. Surveys conflict. Easements exist that were never recorded. We litigate boundary disputes, easement conflicts, and prescriptive easement claims across Virginia’s circuit courts.

WE HANDLE

• Boundary line disputes

• Easement disputes (express, implied, prescriptive)

Quiet Title & Adverse Possession

When ownership is uncertain — because of missing heirs, defective deeds, or decades of unrecorded use — a quiet title action resolves it. We bring and defend quiet title suits, adverse possession claims, and ejectment actions in circuit courts across Virginia.

WE HANDLE

• Adverse possession claims

• Ejectment actions

• Challenges to recorded instruments

• Missing heir and unknown claimant actions

Title Disputes & Title Insurance

When a title search uncovers a defect — or a title company denies coverage — we litigate. We handle slander of title claims, challenges to recorded instruments, and disputes over title insurance coverage.

WE HANDLE

• Title defect litigation

• Slander of title claims

• Title insurance coverage disputes

Partition Actions

When co-owners can’t agree on property management or sale, partition litigation may be the only remedy. We handle partitions in kind, partitions by allotment, and partitions by sale under Virginia’s Uniform Partition of Heirs Property Act and common law.

WE HANDLE

• Partition in kind

• Partition by allotment

• Partition by sale

• Co-owner buyout disputes

• Accounting and contribution claims

Mechanic’s Liens

Construction disputes often end in mechanic’s lien claims. We litigate lien priority, enforce liens on behalf of contractors and suppliers, and defend property owners against lien claims.

WE HANDLE

• Mechanic’s lien enforcement

• Lien priority disputes

• Defense against lien claims

• Lien perfection and release

Foreclosure & Condemnation

We handle foreclosures and represent property owners in condemnation actions. In condemnation, the question is rarely whether the government can take the property — it’s how much they pay for it. When the government takes or damages property without filing a formal action, we bring inverse condemnation claims to recover just compensation.

WE HANDLE

• Foreclosure proceedings

• Deed of trust disputes

• Eminent domain and condemnation

• Inverse condemnation

• Just compensation disputes

HOA & Condominium Disputes

We represent homeowners, boards, and associations in disputes over assessments, CC&R enforcement, architectural controls, and board governance. Virginia’s Property Owners’ Association Act and Condominium Act create specific obligations and remedies. We litigate them.

WE HANDLE

• Assessment disputes and collection actions

• CC&R enforcement

• Architectural control violations

• Board governance and fiduciary duty claims
