SUMMARY:Heirs Property Workshop - Brierfield 5/20
DESCRIPTION:Heirs property has plagued families across Alabama for generations\, leaving them vulnerable to loss and exploitation. Many families find themselves at a crossroads—where action is necessary to safeguard these legacies for generations to come. Heirs property is a form of land ownership where property is shared among heirs and passed down without a clear title. This has been a longstanding issue in Alabama. The lack of clear title documentation opens the door to a myriad of challenges—including legal disputes\, vulnerability to forced sales\, and limited access to resources for property maintenance and development. A light meal will be served. PRE-REGISTRATION IS REQUESTED.
