Ohio Eminent Domain Attorneys

Seeking Just Compensation for the Taking of Private Property

If a federal, state or local government entity is taking your property for a highway, airport, hospital or any other public purpose, you have a constitutional right to receive fair market value for the property taken and any damage to the residue (the portion of the property the condemning authority didn't take), and an experienced attorney can help you get the results you deserve.

At the law firm of Goldman & Braunstein, our Ohio eminent domain lawyers, Michael Braunstein and William Goldman, have decades of experience representing property owners in condemnation matters. Based in Columbus, our firm handles cases statewide, and we are exclusively dedicated to representing landowners in eminent domain cases. We never represent condemning authorities, as many other eminent domain lawyers do.

Advising and Representing Property Owners Statewide

Learning that the government is planning to take your private property for public use can be an intimidating and emotional experience. Even a relatively small taking can profoundly impact your property rights. Understandably, many property owners have strong feelings about these cases.

Our role as lawyers for property owners is to level the playing field by providing our clients with objective advice and zealous advocacy throughout the condemnation process.

Many people believe that you can't fight city hall. When it comes to eminent domain, that is simply not the case. Our attorneys have had substantial success obtaining just compensation for our clients by negotiating fair settlements when possible and trying cases to a jury or judge when necessary.

Unlike many eminent domain law firms, we do not represent condemning authorities. We stand exclusively on the side of protecting the rights of private property owners in these cases.

Maybe you have received a notice of taking. Maybe public meetings have been held on a project that will affect your property rights. Maybe you have only heard rumors at this point. Whatever the circumstances, it is never too early to contact a lawyer to discuss your options.

Our attorneys are available to consult with prospective clients at no cost or obligation. To schedule a meeting to discuss your case, call us toll free at 888-846-2045 or e-mail us today.
