Adverse Possession (Section 49 Registered Land)

Adverse Possession (Section 49 Registered Land)

Historical Research & Evidence Support

Have you occupied a piece of land that you did not purchase, used it regularly for over 12 years, and treated it as your own to the exclusion of others?

If so, you may be exploring the possibility of a Section 49 application to Tailte Éireann (the Land Registry) to have this land registered in your name. This process relies heavily on proving a long, uninterrupted history of occupation.

Why Use My Services?

An application for Adverse Possession requires meticulous attention to detail regarding dates, maps, and historical facts. My service aims to assist you in gathering the necessary evidence to support your claim, ensuring you have a comprehensive factual file ready for submission.

Here is how I can help:

Procedural Information: I can provide clear information on the published requirements for possession claims based on Tailte Éireann guidelines and legislation. I help you understand the criteria so you can assess your own eligibility.

Document Identification: I identify the specific forms required for your application. I provide you with the correct blank forms and explain the function of each document, so you can complete them accurately.

Evidence Compilation: The most difficult part of these applications is the "proof." I assist in gathering the necessary exhibits, such as historical maps, utility bills, photographic evidence, and affidavits from witnesses, organising them into a clear evidence pack for you.

Services

As your researcher, I provide information and administrative support. I take the time to compile your historical data to ensure your application file is organised and logical.

I will act with diligence to ensure all factual assertions are backed by documentation.

Why do I care?

I provide support for possession matters because the facts matter. I understand that the history of a property is complex. While I process the information and organise the claim file, I do not provide legal advice or opinions on the likelihood of success. My role is to ensure that the factual history you present is accurate and well-documented.

How I Do It

As a Legal Researcher, I aim to provide precise information about the procedure for a possession claim. I leave no stone unturned when looking for historical evidence.

As an experienced researcher in property history, I ensure that the organisation of your documentation meets the high standards required by the registry.

I provide clear communication to ensure you are aware of the procedure and understand every stage of the evidence-gathering process.

I take pride in ensuring a cost-effective service to help you manage your own application smoothly.
