Real estate is the canvas that underlies every aspect of our lives. Consequently, it generates much of the highest stakes litigation. Real estate litigation is driven by complex facts that evolved in a modern world colored by a backdrop of historical, sometimes archaic, statutes and case law. Our Real Estate Litigation Practice Group is comprised of distinguished attorneys from across Michigan who, collectively, possess decades of experience in managing the difficulties presented by such disputes. Whether the issue is an emotionally charged boundary line conflict involving lake homes and generations of families or a high value economic dispute involving America’s largest companies, we have the skill and experience to meet every client need and bring resolution and certainty to every situation.

contentpilot/introduction

Our real estate litigators routinely handle matters ranging from adverse possessions to zoning appeals and everything in between: boundary line disputes, condemnations, construction liens and disputes, foreclosures, landlord/tenant matters, oil and gas mineral rights, ordinance violations, vacating plats, riparian rights, tax disputes and issues involving trusts and estates. We represent clients of all sizes, from homeowners and small LLCs to Fortune 500 companies, banks, state agencies and foreign governments.

core/paragraph

We have the right attorneys—in the right location, with the right experience and the right contacts—to give our clients every possible advantage. And when a dispute requires transactional expertise, our real estate litigators are backed by our full-service firm, which has more than 230 attorneys working in dozens of specialized areas of law.
