Expropriation
Gavin Hole, B.Eng, J.D.
While expropriation is carried out in the greater public interest, the potential for conflict and costly damages amongst those directly affected by these public projects is high. Today's expropriation practitioner must be savvy in all facets of the expropriation process, including negotiation, options for challenging the decision to expropriate and issues arising throughout the entire litigation process.
Halsbury's Expropriation title is an essential reference for those representing land owners facing possible expropriation and expropriating authorities seeking to acquire land.
