Does This Sound Like Your Situation?
You inherited property together
One sibling wants to sell while another refuses to leave or cooperate. Learn about selling inherited property when co-owners disagree.
Your relationship ended
You bought a home together, but now need to separate your property interests. See examples of co-ownership disputes and how partition can help.
Your co-owner refuses to sell
A family member, friend, or investment partner will not agree on what to do with the property. A partition action provides a court process for ending the deadlock.
You paid more than your share
You covered the down payment, mortgage, taxes, or repairs. We evaluate those contributions as part of the accounting and reimbursement claims.
Types of Partitions We Handle
From inherited estates to high-value commercial holdings, our attorneys handle every category of co-ownership dispute across California.
Inherited Properties
Heirs often disagree on whether to keep, sell, or manage an inherited property. When co-owners cannot reach an agreement, a partition action allows for the sale or division of the property fairly.
Family-Owned Property Partitions
Properties passed down through generations often become the center of family disputes. A partition action offers a path to resolution while minimizing family tension.
Ex-Boyfriend / Ex-Girlfriend Disputes
Unmarried couples who purchase property together often face disputes when the relationship ends. We help resolve ownership conflicts and force a sale when one party refuses to cooperate.
Residential Partitions
Co-owning a house, condominium, or family home gets complicated when owners disagree on selling, buying out, or keeping it. We resolve residential disputes at every price point with discretion and a clear strategy.
Commercial Partitions
Business partners or co-owners of commercial properties may disagree on management, rent collection, or sales. Our firm ensures commercial real estate is fairly divided or sold to protect your investment.
Farmland Partitions
When co-owners disagree about a farm, ranch, vineyard, or orchard, the land, water rights, and operations are all at stake. We help divide, sell, or buy out agricultural property.
Multi-Property Partitions
When co-owners hold multiple properties together, whether investment homes, rental units, or family-owned assets, dividing or selling them requires careful legal strategy to maximize value.
High Value Partitions
For luxury homes and properties with significant equity, disputes can become particularly complex. We protect our clients’ financial interests, ensuring a fair resolution without unnecessary delays.
A Clear Path From Dispute to Resolution
- Review the property and your goals. We assess ownership, the dispute, and whether you want to sell your interest or keep the property through a buyout.
- Pursue a sale or settlement. We negotiate a resolution and, when needed, pursue a court-ordered partition by sale. A partition referee may oversee the sale.
- Resolve how the proceeds are divided. We address ownership shares, claimed reimbursements, and attorney’s fees through settlement or court proceedings.
