Schedule

The NCDOT is currently contacting property owners to initiate right-of-way proceedings. Construction is estimated to begin in May 2013, but no date has been set for finishing the project.

Property Takings

Approximately $22.5 million has been budgeted for acquiring property needed for the project, and NCDOT officials are currently contacting property owners about taking the property needed. The department of transportation has not announced the neighborhoods that will be affected, but the project map shows the portion of the road that will be widened. Property owners along that route may be affected by the widening.

There are only a handful of attorneys in NC who practice eminent domain exclusively, and even fewer with NCDOT experience. We have several. That’s why its worth getting in touch with us for a free case evaluation.

Here’s how it works:

1) Tell us about your situation.

2) We research your property as needed, using DOT maps, our own technology, and experience to see the exact effects.

3) We let you know what we think a fair offer would be. This evaluation is free, and there’s no
pressure or obligation to hire us after.

But please don’t wait to act. Waiting can hurt your case, and the cost is the same: free.
