Experienced Real Estate Partition Action Attorneys Serving La Puente
Talkov Law’s attorneys serving Los Angeles County are exceptionally experienced in the area of California partition actions. A California partition action is a law that allows co-owners of real property to divide the property among themselves. The partition statutes provide a legal mechanism for co-owners to divide the property without having to go through the court system. The partition statutes also provide a way for co-owners to force the sale of the property if they cannot agree on how to divide it. The partition statutes also set out the procedures for the sale of the property and how the proceeds of the sale will be divided among the co-owners. The partition statutes also provide for the payment of costs associated with the sale of the property.
Our team of partition attorneys can assist co-owners with frequently asked questions about partitions, such as:
- In a partition action, can I be reimbursed for paying more than my fair share of the down payment? Yes, partition actions allow for offsets whereby one co-owner claims excess payments for mortgage, taxes, insurance, improvements, repairs and other property expenses
- What type of relief can be granted by the court in a partition action? A partition action generally involves the sale or division of the property, along with an accounting of offsets.
- What is a partition action and when is it necessary?
- What are the different types of partition in California? Almost all partition actions are partition by sale, though partition in-kind allows the property to be divided, while a partition by appraisal allows the purchase by one-co-owner at an appraised value.

Regan v. McMahon – Partition Action Case Study
In the legal case of Regan v. McMahon, 41 Cal. 679 (1871), the issue was whether a partition of real property could be made without the consent of all the owners. The plaintiff, Regan, owned a one-third interest in a piece of real property with two other owners, McMahon and another individual. Regan sought to partition the property, but McMahon refused to consent to the partition. The court held that a partition could not be made without the consent of all the owners, and that Regan’s attempt to partition the property was invalid. The court reasoned that a partition would be a violation of the rights of the other owners, and that it would be unfair to force them to accept a partition without their consent.
