Eminent Domain Today  is the first site of its kind with the goal of being a completely neutral place that provides a platform to discuss the issue of condemnation and eminent domain without partiality one way or the other. Got an opinion, by all means let the world know but do it in the forums.  Got an article worth posting regardless of what side it represents, by all means submit it.  We are intent and committed on staying neutral and having all sides represented on this web site 

And here's how you can help this website become your most useful toolIt is important for you to know is that this is your website.  You are the people who make this site what it can be.  You, the professional appraiser, attorney, engineer, environmental specialist, relocation specialist, or City, County, and State employee that deal with condemnation and eminent domain.

As you will discover we are trying to address all the issues that affect your  eminent domain work through various features, categories, forums, and links available on this website.
