Property Disputes Lawyers in Chennai

Property disputes in Chennai rarely stay simple. A single plot can carry decades of unrecorded family arrangements, unregistered agreements and overlapping revenue records. We build the documentary chain first, then decide the forum and the remedy — injunction, declaration, recovery of possession or specific performance.

What this covers

• Ownership and title declaration suits
• Recovery of possession and eviction of trespassers
• Boundary and measurement disputes
• Disputes between co-owners and legal heirs
• Specific performance of sale agreements
• Injunction applications to stop illegal construction or alienation
