Eminent Domain

Fair Market Value for Your Property in Minnesota or Wisconsin

If a state or municipal entity wants to take your property for a public purpose (known as "eminent domain" or "inverse condemnation"), you need to know what your rights are and what compensation you may be entitled to for losing your property. In Minnesota and Wisconsin, the lawyers at Eckberg, Lammers, Briggs, Wolff & Vierling, PLLP have helped displaced property owners who deserve to be paid the full value of the land that is being taken when eminent domain has been invoked.

Since 1949, our firm has been representing clients throughout the East Twin Cities Metro, the St. Croix Valley and Western Wisconsin. We have assisted homeowners and commercial property owners dealing with eminent domain actions and are able to fight for the rights of our clients to receive what they are owed. Get what you deserve for your property by talking with an experienced attorney.

Understanding Condemnation and Eminent Domain

Once a government entity has made the decision to take your property, there are several steps that you, as the landowner, can take to maximize your recovery. Once the acquisition process is underway, an appraisal of the property will take place, in order for the true value of the land to be acquired. By getting our firm involved early on in the process, we can often impact the ultimate outcome of the case.

At Eckberg Lammers we work with engineers, appraisers and other real estate industry experts to ensure that your property receives a just and accurate valuation. If a government entity offers you less than fair market value for your property, we will stand up for your rights, either through negotiations or at trial. We will also explain your options and any actions that you can take to improve your situation.
