Easement, Boundary and Title Disputes

We routinely handle land use litigation in the Land Court, Superior Court, or the Massachusetts Appeals Court:

• Easement law — Litigation to define the scope and interpretation of public or private easements and rights of way. This includes litigation of terms and provisions of express written easements, defending or challenging easements implied by law and prescriptive easement litigation to legally recognize and continue an unwritten but established use of adjoining property.
• Title discrepancies — A cloud on the title can hold up real estate transactions or development. We initiate or defend quiet title actions, filing suit to have the court definitively resolve title disputes in our client's favor and extinguish missing interests or other encumbrances.
• Partition actions — We handle actions to divide property or compel buyouts when joint owners cannot agree on how to use the property.
• Boundary disputes — We fight for the interests of homeowners and other landowners in arguments with adjacent owners over boundaries and property use: e.g., lot line dispute, intruding fences, height of structures, setback encroachment, obstructed view, or clearing of trees.

Attorney Jeff Angley is a veteran in land use litigation with more than 25 years of experience. He has secured damages, injunctions and summary judgments in a wide range of easement, boundary, and title disputes for clients throughout Eastern Massachusetts, Cape Cod and the South Shore.
