“My property is being taken? What are my options?”

Unfortunately, in most cases you can’t stop the government from taking your land under the power of eminent domain. However, the Constitution guarantees your right to “just compensation.” That said, do NOT simply accept the first offer from the government. NCDOT will try to pay as little as possible for your property and you deserve more.

We can help.
