Overview

Prove Ownership and Defend Title

Who owns the property when decades of use conflict with the deed? Adverse possession and quiet title actions sit at the center of some of Alabama's most challenging real estate disputes, from boundary disagreements and inherited family land to tax sale properties and prescriptive claims. This practical program explores the rules governing statutory adverse possession and quiet title actions under Alabama law. Learn how to prove - or defeat - the elements of an adverse possession claim, explore gray areas, and understand the procedural requirements for quieting title. Through practical examples and key Alabama case law, you'll gain the tools to confidently advise clients, evaluate ownership claims, and litigate these property disputes. Register today!

  • Evaluate whether the elements of an adverse possession claim have been satisfied or where the claim falls short.
  • Navigate gray-area issues involving tacking, seasonal use, and more.
  • Understand when and how to pursue quiet title actions.
  • Apply key Alabama case law to real-world property ownership disputes.
