To Whom It May Concern:My parents were faced with an eminent domain action. Their 60 acre farm was going to be completely taken through an eminent domain action. My parents are elderly. They hardly know how to use the internet much less contact a lawyer, appraiser and such. I discovered Eminent Domain Information.com through mutual friends. They helped my parents through the entire eminent domain situation. Through Eminent Domain Information.com my parents learned what rights they had and what they could expect.

Hello,
My name is Fred Martin, and I am part of America's "greatest generation". I grew up during the Depression, and served my country in WW l l and also in Korea. My son served in Vietnam and my grandson is now in Iraq. I proudly served my country in 2 wars, and have no regrets. I am a proud American vet. I could never believe that the country I love so much could treat me unfairly. It happened through eminent domain. I was sent a letter explaining my property was a part of a highway project. I was given an offer of $51,000.00 for my property. My wife and I talked it over and agreed. The government must know what they are doing, so we sold the property for $51,000.00. No one told me or explained to me the process of Eminent Domain, what my rights were, that I was entitled to legal representation and appraisals. My neighbor discovered and used Eminent Domain Information.com. He purchased their partial take package and was able to sell his property for twice the value I did. I want people to know you have rights and I wish we had known about Eminent Domain Information.com.

To Whom It May Concern:
I am an 76 year old widow. My husband died so I sold my home and moved into an apartment. Everything was fine until I received a letter from the State telling me that I had to vacate my apartment. My apartment building was going to be taken down because the road was going to be widened. We made contact with a lawyer but he told us we didn't own the building so we had to move. I was so scared but one of my grand children had found Eminent Domain Information.com. What a difference they made. I found out I do have rights as a renter. I could not believe that the government had to pay for my moving and storage of my furniture. They even had to pay me $5200.00 in cash if I wanted to purchase a house. I did buy a house near my daughter.

Dear Friends,
I recently retired from the USPS after 35 years of service. I loved my job, as you can see from the amount of time I worked for the USPS. I met my wife there and we have been happily married for 33 years. I am writing this letter because Eminent Domain Information.com was so helpful during our eminent domain case.
I was a mail carrier for almost 35 years and watched my city change over the years. No one knows a neighborhood better than the mailman. My wife and I received a letter from the city that they needed 21 feet of our front yard because our street was changing for two lanes to four lanes. I went out and measured from the curb to the house and discovered it was 48 feet. That meant my house would be 27 feet from the new road. My car is 17 feet long. We were told this project would create "no damages" to our property.
We researched on the internet and found the people at Eminent Domain Information.com. The partial take package lead us through the process and we ended up hiring our own eminent domain appraiser that proved we were being damaged. We also found out that the city had to provide us with a temporary driveway to our house while ours was being blocked. We more than doubled our award and the driveway made a big difference.
God Bless,
