Types of Takings
Full Taking
In the course of a full taking, the government takes the entire property and the land on which it sits.
Partial Taking
There are different types of partial takings. Some take some of the land, but leave the buildings intact. Others impose an easement, such as a throughway, that cuts through the property.
Our eminent domain lawyers handle cases that involve both types. Using copies of construction plans, aerial photos, maps, and the testimony of our expert witnesses to paint a clear picture of what your property is really worth. In the case of a partial taking, we determine how much the easement or land appropriation is going to depreciate the value of your property.
