Cases We’ve Won For Both Corporate and Individual Clients
PennDOT Settlement
PennDOT condemned land from a commercial property owned by a husband and wife. Simultaneously, PennDOT condemned land from a neighboring property owned by the wife and a son. PennDOT asserted the two properties were in unified ownership and offered $14,800. PennDOT thus attempted to avoid the payment of damages flowing from altered access to the second property. Faherty Law Firm obtained an Order determining that the properties needed to be valued separately. The cases then settled with payment of $28,753 for the first property and $27,038 for the second property.
Turnpike Taking
The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission condemned over 60 acres through the McDonald Sportsmen’s Association property, West of Pittsburgh. The Turnpike offered $1,750,000 in property damages and no relocation benefits. The case settled at $6,750,000.
Pipeline Case Settlement
A pipeline company offered $19,000. The matter settled for $1,577,400. Settlement included language in the easement agreement which restricted the Company to a single pipeline; restricted access; restricted above ground items; included fencing to protect livestock; included right to construct access roads across the easement; and required timber placement nearby for owners use.
