PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
Get Results For Your Road and Access Law Clients
Conflict is inevitable when it comes to road and access law and who is entitled to what. Yet when clients call you in to determine who has rights in an easement, private road or right-of-way dispute, traditional negotiating tactics can fall short. As a result, agreements blow up, cases don't settle and - too often - you end up in court. You need advanced techniques if you're to change the game from conflict to collaboration.
Take one, fast-paced day to explore the newest and best ways to provide the right advice when dealing with both public and private creations and use issues. Save time and frustration by thoroughly understanding who supervises, manages and controls highways. Handle title insurance, deeds and other transactions in ways that will hold up in court, and much more. Walk away with a proven and positive approach for addressing and resolving disputes as they arise in the volatile environment of road and access law.
