Oregon Property Line Disputes

Our Oregon Real Estate Lawyers help property owners resolve ambiguous property lines between neighbors.

Adverse Possession vs. Neighbor - Oregon Adverse Possession

Uncertainty over where a property line runs between two or more neighbors can be solved by applying various legal doctrines. We will evaluate the need to file a declaratory judgment or a quiet title action in Oregon courts to resolve ambiguities in real estate documents.

Landowner vs. Neighbor - Adverse Possession

There may be possible claims for adverse possession by one owner against the other, or both owners may adversely claim the property of the other.

Owner vs. Municipality - Adverse Possession

There may also be issues with public right of ways. In rural areas, there may be issues with septic tanks, and issues with adequate setbacks to property lines. These issues can be resolved with a settlement agreement or there may be a need to file a quiet title action.

Our Oregon Real Estate Law Firm helps landowners determine:

  • Evaluate the significance of survey information.
  • Examine oral and written statements regarding ownership rights.
  • Determine whether claims for adverse possession exists, and bring suit for adverse possession.
  • Bring an action for determination of property lines under ORS Chapter 105.
