Real estate disputes can quickly become a source of stress and uncertainty. Ms. Sophie-Anne Décarie, real estate lawyer in Gatineau, offers her expertise to effectively resolve your real estate disputes, whether they involve rights of way, encroachment, servitude, or neighborhood disturbances.

Real Estate Disputes: Find a Solution Before Going to Court

Where a real estate dispute arises, it is often preferable to reach an amicable settlement to avoid lengthy legal proceedings. We assist you with:

Resolving a neighborhood dispute (noise, nuisances, privacy, fences, hedges)
Right of way or easement
Challenging an encroachment or adverse possession
Settling a co-ownership dispute
Resolving a conflict in a real estate transaction (forcing a purchase, canceling a sale)

When the situation requires it, we take firm and targeted action, including formal notices, strategic discussions, and structured negotiations to achieve a swift and effective settlement.

Judicial Demarcation : Legal determination of property boundaries.
