    Post: Lawsuit against land surveyor

    Posted by Maria on 4/19/07


    I have a question about whether I can sue or not. The
    property next to mine is 10 acres and was subdivided 2
    years ago. When the surveyor surveyed the land the
    description contained a typo giving the property owner 100
    feet of my property. The only reason I found out about
    this was because I am refinancing and the title company
    found the error after doing the title search. Now, the
    surveyor has admitted that there was an error and has
    corrected the problem, but the owner is an older woman and
    seems to have trust issues and doesn't want to sign the
    quit claim deed. This is causing me to have to hire an
    attorney to do a quiet title and I'm also having to pay
    money to extend my interest rate. Would suing the
    surveyor be an option? I would like to recoop the money
    that I'm having to spend and also all the time I've spent
    having to deal with this. What are my options?

    Thank you.
