Hirzel Law on Fox 2 News Involving Controversial Westland Boundary Dispute

By Kevin Hirzel

Hirzel Law, PLC has been hired to resolve a boundary dispute between the owners of lots in a platted subdivision and the developer of a proposed 88 unit site condominium in Westland, Michigan. The attorneys at Hirzel Law, PLC have had previous success in representing clients on issues related to adverse possession and acquiescence. The proposed development is on the site of the former Nankin Mills Elementary School that closed in 2006 and was demolished in 2014. The boundary between the subdivision and proposed development has been established by fence lines for decades. The developer has thus far refused to maintain the existing boundary lines and has submitted plans that would require the removal of portions of fences and landscaping from various yards in the subdivision. The news story can be viewed here.
