Partition Action Lawyers in Queens County, NY

Are All Partition Actions the Same?

In short, no. Three primary types of partition actions exist. The type you may pursue or face depends on the asset at the center of your dispute. 

Below is information about these three partition actions:

• Partition by sale: This involves selling a property and dividing it among co-owners based on their ownership interests. A partition by sale is usually the best option when a property cannot be physically divided.
• Partition in kind: Generally, this action is reserved for land that can be feasibly split. It involves dividing property into equitable portions and splitting it between co-owners.
• Partition by appraisal: If one owner is interested in maintaining complete property ownership, they can buy co-owners out. To determine the purchase price, courts will enlist the help of third-party appraisers.
