WE HELP FARMERS AND AGRICULTURAL PROPERTY OWNERS WORK THROUGH DIFFICULT LEGAL AND REGULATORY MATTERS

Agriculture is heavily regulated, with many environmental concerns to be considered. Land use concerns typically arise from questions such as:

  • Who owns the land?
  • Who has the right to direct or demand conduct on the land pertaining to easements, parcel splits, zoning ordinances and other activities?
  • Who has the right to occupy the land?
  • Who is responsible for cleanup of oil contamination, groundwater contamination, soil contamination and other toxins?

Whether working through a lease agreement, real property agreement or other contract, our law firm can sift through the problems to arise at solutions. We have a vast understanding of water, contamination and regulatory interaction - a vital component of both agri-law and our practice.
