Title Disputes Overview
A quiet title action is a lawsuit filed in Superior Court to establish a party’s legal ownership of real property and remove any challenges or competing claims. These claims, or "clouds on title," may arise from disputed ownership, tax liens, foreclosures, easements, or errors in public records. Partition actions, on the other hand, address situations where multiple parties hold an interest in a property and are unable to agree on its use, management, or disposition. Filing a partition action allows the court to divide the property physically or order its sale, distributing the proceeds among the co-owners according to their ownership interests.
​
Other real estate matters handled in court can include boundary disputes, adverse possession claims, easement conflicts, and challenges related to recorded encumbrances or liens. These actions require careful investigation, documentation, and adherence to procedural requirements to protect client interests and resolve disputes effectively.
​
Our process begins with a detailed review of the property’s records, including deeds, liens, and relevant legal documents, to identify all potential claims or issues. Once the claims are identified, the appropriate legal action is filed, and all interested parties are notified, ensuring that disputes are resolved through the judicial system. During the proceedings, the court evaluates evidence, determines rightful ownership or property rights, and issues a judgment that resolves conflicts and clarifies interests.
