Real Estate Issues We Handle

Our firm helps clients resolve a wide range of real estate matters, including:

• Title defects and ownership disputes
• Quiet title and adverse possession actions
• Boundary and easement conflicts
• Unreleased liens or judgments
• Contract and purchase agreement disputes
• Construction or contractor-related claims
• Inherited property and probate-related ownership issues

Whether the problem stems from a recent transaction or a decades-old deed, we work to identify the source of the issue and pursue the best path to resolution.

Title Defects and Ownership Disputes

A title defect is any problem that affects legal ownership of property. Common examples include missing signatures, clerical errors, undisclosed liens, or conflicting deeds. These issues can prevent property transfers or cloud ownership until they’re formally resolved.

Our attorneys conduct comprehensive title reviews, coordinate with title companies and surveyors, and, when needed, file court petitions to confirm rightful ownership. We regularly handle quiet title actions, competing heir claims, and boundary disputes in DeSoto County Chancery Court.

Quiet Title Actions

When ownership or possession is disputed, a quiet title action may be required to clear competing claims. Our firm represents clients in cases involving:

• Overlapping property descriptions or boundary errors
• Tax sale or foreclosure-related title problems
• Heirship and inheritance claims
• Lost or forged deeds
• Adverse possession or long-term use conflicts

We prepare all filings, gather evidence of ownership, and present the case before the court to obtain a final judgment confirming clear title.
