Kraig has substantial experience in the area of eminent domain, otherwise known as condemnation. Sometimes the government’s need for property comes into conflict with the rights of those who own that property. If the government needs your property in order to take actions designed to protect or advance the health, safety or welfare of the public, it will have the right to take your property. When it does, the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments to the Constitution of the United States and Article 1, Section 13 of the Wisconsin Constitution both provide that the government must pay just compensation for the property it takes.
