When Eric purchased his home, he never imagined that one day he’d be told a construction company planned to build a public road across his driveway. A neighboring contractor had approached him, claiming the development plans authorized them to pave over the edge of his property — a move that would have blocked his driveway and restricted access to his home.
Concerned and unsure of his legal rights, Eric contacted the Law Office of Theresa Nguyen, PLLC for immediate help.
In real estate and land development, misunderstandings about property lines and easements can quickly lead to disputes — especially when large-scale construction projects are involved.
In Eric’s case, the proposed roadway design would have encroached onto his private driveway, effectively cutting off his home’s direct access. The contractor insisted the land was part of a public easement, but no such record existed in the official property documents.
With construction scheduled to begin within days, Eric needed urgent legal action to protect his rights and prevent irreversible changes to his property.
Our attorneys immediately began a thorough investigation into the property’s legal boundaries, easements, and development plans. Working closely with the County Recorder’s Office and the Department of Transportation, we obtained and reviewed the recorded plat maps, legal descriptions, and permits tied to the project.
Our team:
Conducted a comprehensive title and boundary review using official county records
Confirmed there was no legal easement or right-of-way granting access to the contractor
Contacted the developer, project manager, and legal representatives to assert our client’s property rights
Provided clear documentation and legal evidence supporting the client’s ownership boundaries
Negotiated a resolution ensuring the roadway was realigned without encroaching on our client’s driveway
Thanks to our intervention, the construction team modified their plans — preserving both the project timeline and our client’s property rights.
The dispute was resolved swiftly and without litigation. The contractor agreed to adjust the road layout to avoid Eric’s property line, restoring his peace of mind and preserving full access to his home.
Eric avoided a lengthy legal process and potential construction delays while ensuring his property value and legal rights remained fully intact.
“I didn’t even know where to start when the contractor said they’d build over my driveway. Theresa’s team immediately stepped in, did their research, and made sure the road stayed off my land. I didn’t have to go to court or lose access to my home.”
