Even the most basic real estate transaction can require extensive documentation. Our team of real estate lawyers helps draft, negotiate and review real estate contracts. We advise property owners on zoning and land issues. We help resolve landlord / tenant matters such as collection of unpaid rent and eviction defense. We can assist in foreclosing on a property.
Through civil mediation or litigation, we help resolve disputes between landowners and realtor and customers. One of the most common disputes involves conditional land use and issues stemming from property easements.
Michigan Land/Property Easement Law
A property easement is a right to use a specific part of a property for a designated purpose. Conditions of an easement may be contained in the property deed or may be established in a separate document to prevent disputes.
There are two types of easements: express easements and implied easements. An express easement is for example, conditions allowing a utility company to run power lines on a property. Neighbors may enter into an express easement agreement allowing them to share a driveway extending over both property lines.
An implied or prescriptive easement exists when the use of a property continues over a specific period of time with or without verbal permission from the land owner.
