Caldwell & Watson, LLP, lawyers in Atlanta, GA, Georgia

Caldwell & Watson , LLP represents landowners in condemnation litigation with county, municipal, and state government.

Eminent domain is the right of the government to take property from a private owner for public use by virtue of the superior dominion of its sovereignty over all lands within its jurisdiction. The government takes property through a process called condemnation. Both the State and Federal Constitutions require the government to compensate landowners for property taken by the government for a public purpose.

We have a network of expert resources with the creativity and experience to establish a business use and appropriate price for the property in question if, in fact, it has fair value greater than the value offered by the government. Working closely with these experts, we have years of experience helping landowners obtain just compensation from the government.
