The Eminent Domain Practice Group represents developers, governmental entities and private property owners in the acquisition of all types of commercial, industrial and residential properties for public projects. The group has extensive experience in handling condemnation and relocation assistance matters for public entities and developers, as well as for individuals and entities whose property is being acquired for public and redevelopment projects. Few people understand the extent of the government’s power to condemn private property until they are faced with having their property taken. Hill Wallack LLP understands the special strategies needed for effective representation in condemnation matters.

HillWallack LLP attorneys have served as counsel to major public authorities that exercise condemnation powers. We also represent property owners subject to condemnation action. We are actively involved in shaping public works projects to minimize impacts on our clients. We also provide condemnation advice to individuals and businesses in the context of loan transactions, land development, land use planning and approvals, environmental remediation and related matters.

Hill Wallack LLP takes pride in helping our clients achieve the constitutionally guaranteed standard of “just compensation” for property taken by the governmental power of eminent domain. In addition, the firm represents clients in similar land valuation matters such as appeals of government real estate tax assessments.
