Eminent Domain/Expropriation Actions
Taxonomy Code: FT-2465
Programs that provide legal assistance for federal, state or local government entities that are seeking to exercise their right to seize private property for public use under eminent domain statutes and/or for owners of private property who want to appeal the action or initiate an inverse condemnation action to obtain compensation for government actions already taken. In most countries, including the United States under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution, the owner of any appropriated land is entitled to reasonable compensation, usually defined as the fair market value of the property. The exercise of eminent domain is not limited to real property. Governments may also condemn personal property as well as intangible property such as contract rights, patents, trade secrets and copyrights.
