Land Trusts
Our attorneys assist landowners in planning and carrying out strategies to convey their land to future generations or permanently protect its conservation value.
Maine is home to many camps and cottages that have been in families for generations. As families grow, the greater number of joint owners can make management difficult. Our attorneys work with families to design joint ownership mechanisms that allow the property to remain in the family and fairly allocates the costs and benefits of ownership.
Land Conservation
The owners of farmland and working forest land in Maine also face the challenge of landowner succession. Our attorneys have experience working with land conservation organizations throughout the State to help farmers and foresters stay on their land through the sale and donation of conservation easements and agricultural preservation easements.
