An affirmative easement gives the easement holder the right to use another person's property for a specific purpose. No matter your legal circumstances, our property attorneys will evaluate your case to determine the best way to protect your rights. For example, we can hold the other party accountable if their use of your property infringes on your own rights. We can also help you get an easement.

Types of easements we can help you with include:

• Affirmative Easement: Gives easement holder the right to use another person's property for a specific purpose
• Negative Easement: Gives property owner the right to prevent easement holder from doing otherwise lawful activities (i.e. building a structure that would block scenic views)
• Reciprocal Easement Agreements: Gives multiple property owners the right to use shared areas (i.e. parking lots)
• Utility Easement: Gives utility companies the right to install overhead and underground lines

Restrictive covenants affect what an easement holder can and can't do. For example, a restrictive covenant may prevent you from turning a desirable piece of land into a subdivision. Our property attorneys can help you draft a declaration that clearly outlines the rights, responsibilities, and restrictions of all parties.
