Partition Suits

A partition suit is a method that allows individuals to divide property between co-owners. If you co-own property with a friend or family member (which also includes "heir property") you may find yourself in a dilemma. In a perfect world, you and your co-owners would agree on decisions relating to your property, but that is often not the case. Many problems arise when others refuse to pay their share of real estate taxes, and people often lose their land to a delinquent tax sale if they are unable to pick up their co-owners slack. With a partition suit, you can seek a remedy from the Court, in the form of dividing the property, selling it, or buying out the other owners. If you are involved in a dispute over your property, call us today to learn more!
