Eminent Domain and Condemnation Attorneys for Landowners
At Sever Storey we work exclusively for LANDOWNERS. We do not and never will represent municipalities, governments or utilities who seek to take land through the condemnation process. We believe that the State and Federal Constitutions require that landowners receive just compensation for any land taken through condemnation and eminent domain.
Representation by Contingency Fee for Eminent Domain Clients
In many instances landowners can hire our firm on a contingency fee basis. In these situation we will usually take a percentage of the recovery made in your case that is above and beyond the offer made by the condemner before we are retained. In these instances we are only compensated a fixed percentage of the additional amount of just compensation that we are able to obtain for you. Hourly arrangements are also available.
If your property is being taken by the government, contact the attorneys at Sever Storey immediately to find out your rights, and what steps you can take to protect them. The Sever Storey Law Firm will work hard to insure that you get fair value for your land.
