Park & Caporrino is familiar with all state statutes and case law and can represent clients in real estate litigation if any are ever violated. Our highly-skilled real estate attorneys have decades of experience representing clients embroiled in all types of real estate litigation. As a result, we can handle disputes including but not limited to:
Partition
If you and another person jointly own a piece of property, it may be necessary to partition the land to separate controlling interests. Park & Caporrino can help you understand your options when this is the case. Joint property owners often have different ideas about what is best. If you own a piece of property with a sibling, spouse, or friend but cannot agree on how to use it, a partition is likely your best option. A partition divides the interest of the parties in the property so that each party may move forward independently. Whether you choose this route voluntarily or require the court’s assistance, it is best to obtain legal counsel from Park & Caporrino. We will help ensure you get your fair share of the deal.
There are two main types of partition – partition in kind and partition by sale. A partition in kind separates individual interests into distinct portions. This is typically the best route when parties are amenable. A partition by sale involves selling the entire property and dividing the proceeds among all the owners. Let Park & Caporrino help you during a partition case to protect your rights and assets.
Breach of Contract
Unfortunately, some real estate transactions end with a breach of contract. But New York and New Jersey laws protect the non-offending parties. Park & Caporrino’s real estate lawyers will review the contracts and related documents and protect you if another party wrongfully refuses to transfer a title or defaults on a purchase agreement. You may be entitled to monetary damages or specific performances because of the breach. Let us help ensure you get what you deserve.
Adverse Possession
There are complicated laws regarding adverse possession in New York and New Jersey, but they stipulate that a person in possession of land owned by another party may acquire a valid title to it if common law requirements are met and the adverse possessor is in possession for a predetermined period of time. Our experienced real estate lawyers will help explain the common law requirements and statutes to help you with real estate litigation involving adverse possession. When necessary, we will represent you in court to help ensure rightful property ownership.
