Experienced Real Estate Partition Action Attorneys Serving Palmdale

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 awarding each co-owner a certain percentage of the property’s value. The court will then order the property to be divided according to the co-owners’ wishes. The partition statutes also provide that if the court finds that a physical division of the property is not possible, it may order the property to be sold and the proceeds divided among the co-owners.

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

  • Are there ways to make my partition action less expensive? There are numerous ways to obtain a less expensive partition action in California. For example, having your documents organized can ensure you don’t have to pay your attorney to go through a disorganized mess to get the information they need.
  • What to expect in a California partition action? Partition actions necessarily resolve the conflict between co-owners through an expedited statutory process. A capable partition attorney will assist in expediting the process and producing the most favorable outcome.
  • 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.
  • What are the grounds for a partition action in California? A co-owner is “entitled to partition as a matter of absolute right,” meaning “he need not assign any reason for his demand; that it is sufficient if he demands a severance; and that when grounds for a sale are duly established it may be demanded as of right. To grant it is not a mere matter of grace.” De Roulet v. Mitchel (1945) 70 Cal.App.2d 120, 123-124.
  • Can a partition action be stopped? Generally, a partition action cannot be stopped, but a defendant may be able to buy time to seek a resolution. Eventually, however, the plaintiff can generally force the sale of the property based on the absolute right to partition.

    Davis v. Pacific Imp. Co. – Partition Action Case Study

    In the legal case of Davis v. Pacific Imp. Co., 118 Cal. 45 (1897), the issue of partition was at the center of the dispute. The plaintiff, Davis, owned a parcel of land that was divided into two parts by a fence. The defendant, Pacific Imp. Co., owned the land on the other side of the fence. Davis argued that the fence should be removed and the land should be partitioned into two equal parts, with each party receiving one half. Pacific Imp. Co. argued that the fence should remain in place and that Davis should receive the land on his side of the fence, while Pacific Imp. Co. should receive the land on their side of the fence. The court ultimately ruled in favor of Davis, ordering that the fence be removed and the land be partitioned into two equal parts.
