Disputes Concerning the Removal of Obstacles to the Use of Real Estate

Since 2008, the “First Legal” Law Firm has successfully protected the interests of individuals in land disputes.

One of the practice areas in resolving land disputes at the “First Legal” Law Firm is representing the interests of individuals in disputes regarding the removal of obstacles to the use of property (land plots). Both owners of land plots and rightful users whose right of use is registered in the State Register of Property Rights turn to our firm for this service. A violation of the right to use a land plot may arise in various ways, for instance: the unauthorized occupation of a land plot by constructing buildings or structures or conducting business activities, encroachment on the boundaries of a land plot, denying access (entry) to the land plot, and so on. Not infrequently, the violators of the right to use the land plot are the owners themselves. It is far from always possible to resolve the dispute through negotiations or with the help of an independent mediator due to the parties’ unwillingness to compromise; therefore, the only effective means of protection for the entitled party is to go to court.

The service offered by the “First Legal” Law Firm in representing individuals in disputes regarding the removal of obstacles to the use of property (land plots) includes:

  • Legal analysis of the documents provided by the client;
  • Preparation of the legal position and its coordination with the client, along with consultations;
  • Collection of evidence (including through attorney requests and by accessing the State Register of Property Rights);
  • Preparation and filing of the statement of claim in court, assistance with payment of the court fee;
  • Representation of the client’s interests during court hearings, including the preparation and submission of procedural motions;
  • Consultation at the enforcement stage of the court’s decision.

By agreement with the client, the “First Legal” Law Firm can also represent the client’s interests during appellate and cassation proceedings, as well as throughout the enforcement of the court’s decision.

The right to use property (land plots) at one’s own discretion is one of the fundamental property rights, allowing the user to fully exploit the object and derive the maximum benefit from it. If you have grounds to believe your rights have been violated, we recommend seeking professional assistance. We make every effort to protect our clients’ interests.
