Common Causes of Boundary Disputes

Boundary disputes can stem from several factors, including:

  • Survey Errors: Inaccurate or outdated property surveys can lead to misunderstandings about where property lines actually lie.
  • Encroachments: One property owner may inadvertently (or intentionally) build a structure, such as a fence, wall, or shed, that crosses into a neighbor’s land.
  • Adverse Possession Claims: A neighbor may claim ownership of a portion of your property after using it openly and continuously for a certain period.
  • Easements and Rights-of-Way: Disagreements can arise over the use of shared driveways, pathways, or access points.
