Expropriation Law 

Protecting Your Rights When the Government Takes Your Land.

Expropriation, also known as eminent domain, is the government’s legal authority to take private property for public use—with the obligation to provide just compensation. At Gomez Legal, we represent landowners, businesses, and affected parties to ensure that their rights are upheld and that fair, lawful compensation is secured.

Whether you’re facing a road-widening project, infrastructure development, or land acquisition by a national agency or local government unit (LGU), we provide legal guidance and representation every step of the way.

Our Expropriation Services Include:

• • Legal Representation in Expropriation Proceedings
    We defend your rights in court or administrative proceedings and ensure the proper application of expropriation laws.
    
  • Assessment of Just Compensation
    We work with experts and conduct legal analysis to determine the fair market value of the affected property—challenging undervaluations or irregular assessments.
    
  • Negotiation with Government Agencies
    We assist in negotiating the terms of acquisition and compensation with DPWH, LGUs, or other agencies involved in land-taking.
    
  • Due Process Safeguards
    We help ensure that all legal procedures are followed, including notice requirements, proper filing of expropriation cases, and lawful possession.
    
  • Opposition to Irregular or Unlawful Takings
    Legal action to oppose takings that lack legal basis, public purpose, or fair compensation.
    
  • Assistance in Related Issues
    Including relocation, easement disputes, and impact on adjoining properties or businesses.
    

 We Represent:

• • Private landowners
    
  • Agricultural landholders
    
  • Businesses and developers
    
  • Families with ancestral or inherited land
    
  • Property owners impacted by national or local infrastructure projects
    

At Gomez Legal, we understand the disruption and stress that expropriation can bring. Our goal is to protect your property rights, maximize just compensation, and ensure a fair and lawful process—no matter how complex the case.
