Experienced Real Estate Partition Action Attorneys Serving Los Angeles

Talkov Law’s attorneys serving Los Angeles County are exceptionally experienced in the area of California partition actions. California partition actions provide a legal mechanism for co-owners of real property to divide the property among themselves. The partition statutes allow a co-owner to file a lawsuit in court to have the property divided, either physically or by sale. The court will then order the division of the property in a way that is fair and equitable to all parties. The partition statutes also provide that any proceeds from the sale of the property must be divided among the co-owners in proportion to their respective interests in the property.

Our team of partition attorneys can assist co-owners with frequently asked questions about partitions, such as:

  • What types of properties can be subject to a partition action in California? All co-owned real or personal property can be partitioned under California law. Cal. Civ. Proc. Code § 872.020.
  • How do I file a partition action? Partition actions must be filed in the county where some or all of the co-owned real property is located by way of a partition complaint. While filing the complaint is relatively easy, reaching the end of the partition as quickly and efficiently as possible requires the skill of an experienced partition attorney.
  • What is a partition action and when is it necessary?
  • Can I still file a partition if my co-owner has filed for bankruptcy? Yes, the partition action can generally be filed in the bankruptcy court or the bankruptcy court can apply state partition law to allow offsets when the co-owned property is sold by the bankruptcy trustee.
  • How much does a partition action cost? The cost of a partition action can vary widely depending on the complexity of the case. A typical partition action usually costs between $5,000 and $12,000, with about $8,000 being the most common cost. However, difficulty locating a defendant, the motion to appoint a partition referee, delay tactics by defendants, and other issues may raise the cost of your partition action. An experienced partition lawyer can mitigate costs and resolve your co-ownership dispute with maximum efficiency.

    Richmond v. Dofflemyer – Partition Action Case Study

    In the legal case of Richmond v. Dofflemyer, 105 Cal.App.3d 745 (1980), the issue of partition was at the center of the dispute. The case involved a dispute between two co-owners of a parcel of real property. The plaintiff, Richmond, owned a one-half interest in the property, while the defendant, Dofflemyer, owned the other half. Richmond sought to partition the property, while Dofflemyer sought to prevent the partition. The court found that the parties had a right to partition the property, but that the partition must be made in a manner that is fair and equitable to both parties. The court noted that the partition must be made in a way that does not prejudice either party, and that the partition must be made in a way that is consistent with the interests of both parties. The court also noted that the partition must be made in a way that does not destroy the value of the property. The court noted that the partition must be made in a way that preserves the value of the property, and that the partition must be made in a way that does not cause either party to suffer an undue hardship. The court also noted that the partition must be made in a way that is consistent with the law. The court noted that the partition must be made in a way that is consistent with the law of partition, and that the partition must be made in a way that is consistent with the law of real property. Finally, the court noted that the partition must be made in a way that is consistent with the interests of the public. The court noted that the partition must be made in a way that is consistent with the public policy of preserving the value of real property, and that the partition must be made in a way that is consistent with the public policy of protecting the rights of co-owners.
