Get Maximum Compensation For Your Property
Eminent domain is the power of the state or federal government to force property owners to sell their private property for public use. Private companies may also use the power of eminent domain granted to them by the government to take private property. The process by which private property is taken is known as “condemnation.”
Texas’s continued economic growth requires the expansion and improvement of infrastructure, facilities, and buildings. As the population in Texas grows, the need increases. In some cases, privately owned land is used to meet these needs.
The United States and Texas Constitutions provide that property owners must receive just, adequate compensation when private property is taken for public use. However, most seeking to take property through condemnation generally assign low values to properties they wish to take and completely ignore or attempt to diminish any damages to the remaining property. Further, complex procedural requirements and law often make it difficult for property owners to obtain what they are constitutionally owed on their own.
