You Deserve Maximum Compensation

Unfortunately, the government will try to pay as little as possible for property taken as part of the SE Raleigh to Clayton I-40 widening and interchange improvement project. However, the Constitution guarantees your right to “just compensation,” which means you deserve fair market value for your taken property.

Do NOT simply accept the government’s first offer for your property.

Our team has recovered millions of dollars collectively in additional compensation for property owners who have had their property taken by the government (see disclaimer below).
