Condemnation

Condemnation is the process by which the government takes property from property owners and business owners through the power of eminent domain. The government has the right to acquire property for public use provided they pay the property owner just compensation. You must protect your right to have a jury decide how much you should be paid for your property as just compensation. Property owners facing condemnation should consult an attorney so that they know their options and to make sure they get the compensation they are entitled to if the condemnation goes forward.
