Are you feeling frustrated, confused, or powerless because the government wants to take your property?
That’s where Owners’ Counsel of America (OCA) comes in. We’re a nationwide network of top-tier eminent domain attorneys dedicated to protecting private property rights.
The government has a team of seasoned lawyers fighting for their interests. You deserve the same level of experience advocating for you. We understand the tactics the government uses. We know how and when to fight back.
OCA attorneys have a proven track record of representing owners, and securing fair compensation for those facing:
Inverse Condemnation
When government actions damage your property value without an admitted taking like flooding.
Regulatory Takings
When government regulations severely restrict your property’s use or value.
What OCA Does
Founded to help level the playing field between government and property owners, OCA connects you with top-tier lawyers who fight for what’s rightfully yours. If you are facing a condemnation issue, you don’t want an attorney who primarily represents government agencies (condemnors) representing you. You want someone who has dedicated a substantial amount of their practice and legal career to representing property owners like you. We believe the right to own property is a cornerstone of American society, and we’re dedicated to protecting it for landowners across the nation in all manner of takings cases.
What We Don’t Do
At OCA, our focus is on protecting landowners against government overreach and ensuring just compensation in eminent domain cases; typically a public project is involved and the government contacts owners to let them know that all or a portion of their property will be acquired for the project. We do not handle issues like code violations, where a local city, town or other government entity claims that property is unsafe due to code violations. These types of condemnations are generally not for public projects and impact only one property where there are alleged safety, health, or code violations. In such cases, we recommend contacting a local land use attorney or legal aid office which can consult the applicable code and state law and potentially assist you.
