Trusted Legal Guidance for Property Owners
Property disputes can be as unique as the individuals involved in them, and as diverse as real estate projects themselves. Developers may face litigation when there is a dispute with a seller about purchase and sale agreements. Municipalities may have to enter litigation over entitlements and zoning. Contractors may encounter disputes over construction defects or delays, cost overruns, or construction bidding. Property owners may enter litigation over repair and restoration obligations, unpaid rent, or rights of first refusal.
Clearly, there are a number of different types of property disputes involving a range of different parties. Below, our Miami property dispute lawyer outlines some of the common disputes we can help resolve.
Contract Disputes
Contract disputes, including breach of contract, are some of the most common types of property disputes. A breach of contract can have a long-term negative effect on the parties involved, and they can also damage a business. Early intervention is often the best way to preserve the relationships and prevent the dispute from escalating.
Landlord/Tenant Disputes
There are a number of landlord/tenant disputes that arise in residential and commercial settings. These include terminating or breaking leases, property damage claims, evictions, and more. Often these disputes can be prevented with a well drafted lease agreement, but that is not always the case.
Property Insurance
Home and business owners purchase insurance to protect them in the event that their property becomes damaged. Unfortunately, insurance companies prioritize their own profits and bottom line over the rights of policyholders. When insurance companies act in bad faith by unfairly denying, delaying, or reducing claims, it is often necessary to file a lawsuit against them to obtain the necessary coverage.
Quiet Title Actions
Quiet title actions are meant to prevent previous owners, as well as mortgage and lien holders from declaring interest in real property. Through a quiet title action, you can obtain what is necessary to offer the title to a potential purchaser or to obtain title insurance for yourself.
Partition Actions
Partition actions allow co-owners of property to divide a property so each owns their individual share without connection to the other owner or owners. Sometimes, dividing the property is not practical and so, the property must be sold instead.
Eminent Domain
Eminent domain actions refer to when a government agency seizes a property because it is necessary for public use. In exchange, the property owner is adequately compensated for the property. Unfortunately, eminent domain actions are rarely this straightforward. They can become very complex and it is critical that property owners ensure their rights are protected.
