Frequently Asked Questions
What does property law cover?
Property law deals with how real estate is owned, used, and transferred. It covers buying and selling property, boundary disputes, landlord-tenant issues, easements, zoning, title problems, and claims for property damage.
What should I do if I’m involved in a property boundary or title dispute?
If you’re involved in a property boundary or title dispute, the first step is to speak with a property law attorney. They can review your survey, deed, title documents, and any other records to determine your rights. An attorney can then help you resolve the dispute through negotiation, mediation, or, if needed, litigation.
What are my rights as a property owner in Florida?
As a property owner, you have the right to use and enjoy your property and to keep others off it. However, local zoning laws, easements, and homeowners’ association rules can place limits on those rights.
How does Florida handle landlord and tenant disputes?
Florida law provides clear rules for landlords and tenants on issues like leases, security deposits, repairs, and eviction procedures. If you are facing a dispute, legal guidance can help you follow state requirements and protect your rights.
What happens if someone damages my property?
If someone damages your property — whether on purpose or by accident — you may be able to receive compensation for repairs, loss of use, or a drop in value. A property law attorney can help you bring a claim or defend yourself against one.
