Property law is a category of civil law that regulates the ownership, use, transfer, and rights of property. The legal framework governing the purchase, ownership, leasing, sale, and inheritance of real estate is defined by property law. It establishes the obligations and rights of landlords, tenants, and other parties such as government agencies or mortgage lenders. Property law ensures orderly property transfer, protects ownership rights, and resolves disputes. It is also essential for regulating land use, zoning, and development to promote economic activity and societal advancement.
The legal provisions relating to property law are mentioned in Part 4 of the National Civil Code, 2074. Our firm provides comprehensive property law services throughout Nepal, representing clients in District Courts, High Courts, and Supreme Court for all property-related matters.
Property Law Services in Nepal:
Property Agreements
Property agreements focus on the drafting, negotiation, and enforcement of contracts related to property ownership, transfer, and use. These agreements establish the rights, obligations, and responsibilities of parties involved in property transactions. We assist clients in drafting, reviewing, and negotiating property agreements to ensure compliance with Nepal property laws and protect the interests of all parties. Our services include resolving disputes arising from property agreements, such as breach of contract, fraud, or misrepresentation. This practice area ensures clarity, certainty, and fairness in property-related transactions.
Rental and Lease Agreements
Rental and lease agreements involve the creation, negotiation, enforcement, and dispute resolution of contracts between property owners (landlords) and tenants. These agreements outline the terms and conditions for temporary use or occupancy of residential, commercial, or industrial property in exchange for rent or lease payments. We provide legal assistance in drafting, reviewing, and negotiating rental and lease agreements to ensure compliance with local housing, tenancy, and property laws. Our attorneys handle landlord-tenant disputes, eviction proceedings, and claims related to non-payment, property damage, and lease violations. The primary objective is to protect the rights of both landlords and tenants while promoting fairness and legal compliance in property rental transactions.
Land Partition
Land partition involves the division of jointly owned land or property into distinct portions, allowing each co-owner to receive a separate and exclusive share. This is commonly used to resolve disputes between co-owners, heirs, or family members who have inherited property together. Partition can occur voluntarily through mutual agreement or, if no consensus is reached, through court-ordered partition. We assist clients in negotiating partition agreements, representing them in court proceedings, and ensuring fair and equitable distribution of land or its value. Our attorneys handle disputes related to ownership claims, boundary issues, and valuation of land. The primary goal is to provide clear resolution to shared ownership conflicts while protecting the legal rights and financial interests of all parties involved.
Boundary Disputes
Boundary disputes focus on resolving conflicts over the precise location of property lines between neighboring landowners. These disputes often arise due to unclear property deeds, inaccurate surveys, encroachments, or natural changes in land features. Such conflicts can affect property use, ownership, and development. We provide legal advice, negotiate settlements, and represent clients in court proceedings for boundary disputes. Our attorneys work with surveyors, title experts, and mediators to establish accurate property boundaries and resolve conflicts. The primary goal is to protect property rights, ensure accurate boundary demarcation, and prevent future disputes between neighboring property owners.
Encroachment and Trespassing
Encroachment and trespassing cases address unlawful entry, use, or occupation of another person's property. We help property owners assert their rights by seeking remedies such as removal of encroachments, compensation for damages, or filing for injunctions to prevent further trespassing. Our attorneys handle disputes related to property boundaries, adverse possession claims, and violations of property rights. The primary goal is to protect property ownership, resolve boundary-related conflicts, and ensure lawful use and access to land or real estate.
Money Transactions in Property Matters
Money transactions in property law focus on the legal regulation, documentation, and enforcement of financial transactions between individuals, businesses, and financial institutions. This includes activities related to the transfer, lending, borrowing, and repayment of money in property transactions. We ensure that property-related financial transactions are legally compliant, transparent, and enforceable. Our attorneys assist clients in drafting financial contracts, negotiating payment terms, and representing clients in disputes over non-payment or breach of contract. The primary objective is to protect the financial interests of parties, ensure regulatory compliance, and facilitate secure, transparent, and enforceable financial transactions.
