Legal Challenges
Limestone County Property Disputes
I am Attorney William Burress, and I represent investors, developers, and property owners in high-value commercial and private wealth property conflicts. My practice is strictly dedicated to complex, document-heavy Limestone County real estate litigation.
Protecting your real property assets requires a rigorous analytical approach. I focus my practice on meticulous pre-trial preparation, exhausting the discovery process, and executing precise legal drafting to resolve disputes efficiently through dispositive motions or, when necessary, trial.
While located in Florence, I routinely represent clients in Limestone County with property or real estate disputes.
Commercial Development and Construction Disputes
Financial exposure during commercial construction or land development can escalate rapidly. I represent parties on all sides of complex development disputes, enforcing contracts and protecting capital investments through:
- Construction Flaws and Failures: Litigating high-dollar claims involving structural defects, design negligence, and breaches of express or implied warranties.
- Mechanic’s Liens and Contractor Disputes: Navigating the perfection, enforcement, and defense of materialman and mechanic’s liens on commercial properties.
- Joint Venture Property Disputes: Resolving internal conflicts between real estate partners, including financial accounting, forced sales, and breaches of fiduciary duty related to property holding companies.
Title Cures and Conveyance Conflicts
Unencumbered title is absolutely necessary for the transfer or financing of any significant property. I handle intricate title and boundary litigation, including:
- Quiet Title Suits: Initiating legal actions to clear clouds on title, resolve competing ownership claims, and fix historical conveyancing errors.
- Easement and Access Conflicts: Litigating the scope, enforcement, or termination of prescriptive easements and disputed rights-of-way.
- Fraud in Real Estate Transfers: Pursuing claims for intentional misrepresentation, concealment of material facts, and fraudulent inducement during the acquisition of commercial or high-value residential property.
Government Action and Lease Enforcement
When a commercial tenant breaches an agreement or the government infringes on private property rights, I provide aggressive Limestone County real estate litigation strategies to protect your interests.
- Condemnation Proceedings: Demanding fair market value and just compensation when a governmental entity exercises eminent domain or inverse condemnation.
- Commercial Lease Breaches: Enforcing the strict terms of commercial leases, including common area maintenance (CAM) audits, build-out disputes, and commercial evictions.
- Zoning and Land Use: Challenging or defending restrictive covenants, municipal zoning ordinances, and commercial land-use regulations.
