Property dispute – lawyer helps with property disputes
A property dispute is a disagreement related to a property – boundary dispute, easement, right of use or other ownership-related question. Property disputes can be complex and emotionally charged. Lakiasiaintoimisto A&Co. Legal Oy helps with resolving property disputes – primarily amicably, if necessary in court. Our lawyers ensure your rights are upheld.
Most common causes of property disputes
Property disputes arise from many causes: boundary disputes – disagreement about the property boundary – easement disputes – validity of mortgages or rights of use – disagreements about zoning designations, co-ownership disputes and restrictions on property use. A lawyer helps assess the grounds of the dispute and resolution options.
Boundary dispute and boundary determination
A boundary dispute is a disagreement about a property's boundary. A boundary dispute can be resolved through negotiation, but if no agreement is reached, the boundary can be determined by the court. Boundary determination requires accurate surveying and expertise. The lawyer represents you in negotiations and court and ensures the boundary dispute is resolved correctly.
Easements and rights of use
An easement is a right or obligation attached to a property that limits the owner's authority. Easements include mortgages, rights of use, excavation rights and other privileges. An easement dispute concerns the validity, scope or effect of the easement. The lawyer checks easements, assesses their validity and assists with easement disputes.
Amicable resolution and court proceedings
Property disputes should be resolved amicably – through negotiation and mediation – before court proceedings. An amicable resolution is faster and more affordable. If a settlement cannot be reached, the property dispute can be taken to court. The lawyer represents you in both cases and ensures your rights are pursued. We serve in Finland and Spain.
