What is Eminent Domain?

Houston Eminent Domain Attorneys

Eminent domain is the constitutional right of the government and certain authorized agencies to seize your private land for public use, such as widening a road, building a bridge or constructing a new civic building.

If the government wants to take your land — to build an interstate or toll road, for example — there is a legal process of condemnation they have to go through in which they are required to pay you fair value for the land they take. Many people's biggest mistake is that they simply roll over and take whatever the government offers them.
