Encroachment, survey, layout and agricultural land disputes handled with revenue and civil remedies.
Land disputes turn on measurement, records and possession. We combine FMB sketches, survey reports and revenue entries with civil remedies so that the outcome is enforceable on the ground, not just on paper.

- Encroachment and trespass on vacant land
- Survey number, sub-division and extent mismatches

- Unapproved layout and plot allotment disputes
- Agricultural land and conversion issues
- Government land classification objections
When you need a lawyer

Frequently asked questions
The Field Measurement Book sketch is the government's record of the shape and measurement of a survey number. Most boundary disputes are resolved by reading it against the ground position.
Police assistance is limited in civil disputes. A civil injunction, once obtained, is the enforceable route and can be executed with police protection if disobeyed.
