Condemnation
Protecting Landowners’ Rights in Condemnation and Eminent Domain Cases
When government agencies or private corporations use eminent domain to take private property for public use, property owners have the right to just compensation. Known as “Condemnation,” this process allows local, state, and federal entities – and sometimes corporations like oil and gas companies – to acquire land for infrastructure projects. At the Law Offices of Bennie D. Rush, P.C., we are committed to helping landowners in Huntsville and surrounding Texas communities secure fair compensation when their property is at risk.

Types of Condemnation Cases We Handle
We represent clients facing a range of condemnation cases, including:
Pipeline Easements
Oil and gas pipelines are frequently laid across private land, impacting property in Walker, Madison, and surrounding counties. We help landowners secure compensation for both the property taken and any damages to the remaining land.
Roadway Construction
Government projects often require private property for new roads and expansions. While these projects may benefit the public, they can significantly affect landowners whose property falls within the project footprint.
Ensuring Just Compensation for Property Owners
In any condemnation case, landowners are entitled to “just compensation,” meant to provide fair monetary value for the property taken. If only a portion of your land is seized, you may be eligible for compensation not only for the land taken but also for any devaluation or damage to the remaining property. Attorney Bennie D. Rush and our skilled legal team will fight to ensure that your rights as a property owner are respected and that you receive a fair settlement for your loss.
