The Eminent Domain Group of Fowler White successfully focuses on all aspects of eminent domain litigation. This practice group has decades of experience in this area of the law. The Eminent Domain Group was highly successful in representing the landowner in one of the most hotly contested and well-publicized eminent domain cases in recent memory - - the "Miami Circle" case in Miami-Dade County, Florida. We also have extensive experience representing governmental and quasi-governmental agencies attempting to utilize their eminent domain powers, including the City of Homestead and the Homestead Economic Redevelopment Organization after Hurricane Andrew struck South Florida. This practice group has specialized knowledge of Community Redevelopment Agencies in the State of Florida.

Because eminent domain cases often involve a myriad of critical issues prior to the actual "taking" of the property by the government entity, it is important that the owner or lessee engage legal counsel at the earliest possible stage after learning that property rights may be challenged by governmental action. The Fowler White Eminent Domain Group can quickly gather relevant information and assess a case at its early stages to obtain the most advantageous results.

The Eminent Domain Group has extensive experience in representing property owners in inverse condemnation and regulatory taking procedures where the government, without instituting formal condemnation proceedings or physically encroaching on a client’s property, has denied a client beneficial use of its property either in carrying out some public project or applying a regulatory provision. Accordingly, from a "slow take" or a "quick take" in Florida, the Fowler White specialists in the Eminent Domain Group are always ready to serve.
