Litigation Appraisals: Protecting Your Interests in Real Estate Disputes

Real estate is often a significant asset, and disagreements surrounding its value can arise in various legal contexts. When facing litigation involving real estate, having a skilled and experienced appraiser on your side can be the difference between a favorable outcome and an unfavorable one. At Cogito, our team of litigation appraisers provides comprehensive appraisal services specifically tailored to legal disputes.

When are Litigation Appraisals Needed?

Litigation appraisals are crucial for a variety of real estate-related legal matters, including:

Eminent Domain:   If the government seeks to acquire your property for public use, a litigation appraisal can ensure you receive fair compensation for its true market value.
Divorce:  During a divorce, determining the value of marital property, including real estate, is essential. Our appraisals provide a neutral and defensible assessment for equitable asset division.
Partnership Disputes: Disagreements between partners regarding the value of jointly owned real estate can be resolved with an objective appraisal.
