Real Estate Litigation

All the potential upsides of purchasing, selling, developing, and investing in real estate – positive cash flow, profitability, and a robust return on investment – come with an equivalent level of risk. This includes the possibility of unexpected encumbrances or title problems that may negatively impact a property’s value and transferability, as well as disputes with other parties to a transaction, neighboring property owners, or governmental entities that may seek to impinge on an owner’s rights to use and develop their property as they see fit. No matter the nature of the conflict, real estate disputes that devolve into litigation can delay or derail a lucrative transaction, put the brakes on a promising project, and lead to significant expense and disruption.

Ansell.Law’s real estate litigation attorneys possess ample and diverse experience
defending and advancing the interests of property owners, sellers, buyers,  developers, investors, and others in real estate disputes of all types, values, and complexities.
