Frequently Asked Questions about Disputes of Ownership of Land

What is a dispute over ownership of land?

A dispute over ownership of land occurs when two or more parties claim legal ownership of the same piece of property or one neighbour believes that the other is acting unlawfully or creating a nuisance. These disputes can arise due to various reasons, including unclear or contested deeds, boundary disputes, or disagreements about inheritance.

    What type of disputes may arise in relation to ownership of land?

    Common types of land ownership disputes include:

    • Boundary Disputes: When neighbouring property owners disagree on where one property ends and another begins.
    • Adverse Possession Claims: When someone occupies a piece of land for a certain period without the owner’s consent and then claims ownership.
    • Co-ownership Disputes: When multiple parties own a property and disagreements arise about its use, maintenance, or sale.

      What should I do if I am involved in a dispute over ownership of land?

      If you find yourself involved in a land ownership dispute, it’s crucial to seek legal advice as soon as possible. Contact us at Franklins Solicitors to discuss your case. We’ll help you understand your rights and options, and guide you through the legal process.

      How does Franklins Solicitors handle disputes over ownership of land?

      Throughout the entire process, whether this be pre-issue of court proceedings or in the middle of an ongoing dispute, it is important to consider settling the dispute by way of Alternative Dispute Resolution. This is a form of settling outside of the court process. We will advise you that before issuing any claim with the court, you must comply with the Pre-Action Protocol which we will guide you through. If the claim doesn’t reach a successful settlement and proceeds to trial, we will guide you through the process and prepare you for the same.
