Real Property Law

Real property issues often arise when the legal record and conditions on the ground do not tell the same story. Property rights or access may be uncertain, long-standing use may carry legal consequences, or a previously unknown condition may change what can be done with the land. Fahey Schultz Burzych Rhodes can help property owners, businesses, developers, and governmental entities throughout Michigan understand how those circumstances affect their property and determine the best course of action in each unique situation.
