Expropriation

Expropriation Expertise in Lebanon
Expropriation in Lebanon is a legal process that allows public authorities to acquire private property for projects deemed to be in the public interest, such as infrastructure development, urban planning, or environmental protection. While the government has the right to expropriate property, it is required to follow a set of legal procedures to ensure that property owners are treated fairly and compensated appropriately. These procedures involve notifying property owners, assessing the value of the property, and providing compensation based on market value and any damages incurred due to the expropriation.

Our Expertise in Expropriation Matters
Our firm has extensive experience in handling all aspects of expropriation cases in Lebanon, offering comprehensive legal services to protect the rights and interests of our clients. Our expertise includes:

• Representation of Property Owners: We represent property owners facing expropriation, providing robust legal support to challenge expropriation decisions and negotiate fair compensation. Our team conducts thorough reviews of the expropriation notice, evaluates the valuation process, and ensures that all legal procedures are followed. We advocate for our clients’ rights to ensure that they receive just compensation for their property, including compensation for any loss of income, business, or future development potential.
• Advising on Compensation Claims: The key issue in most expropriation cases is the amount of compensation offered to the property owner. Our firm has a strong track record in advising clients on compensation claims, ensuring that valuations are fair and reflect the true market value of the property. We provide expert guidance on the factors that should be considered in determining compensation, such as current market conditions, the property’s location, and its potential future uses. Our team works diligently to secure the maximum possible compensation for our clients.
• Challenging and Abolishing Expropriation Decisions: In cases where expropriation decisions are deemed unjust or not in compliance with legal requirements, or when a long time has elapsed without the proper execution of an expropriation decision, we provide legal representation to challenge and, in some cases, abolish these decisions before the appropriate administrative and judicial authorities. Our lawyers are skilled in presenting strong arguments to contest the necessity or legality of an expropriation, based on issues such as improper notice, inadequate compensation, or lack of genuine public interest.
