[WSBAPT] Reverse adverse possession

[Shannon Jones]

I am not sure you can do this at all. Maybe a declaratory judgment action, as your client is title owner and the only remedy would ordinarily be for trespass and ejection of the neighbor, which I understand client doesn't want - Shannon

Subject: [WSBAPT] Reverse adverse possession

Anyone familiar with bringing a quiet title or reverse adverse possession to give a neighboring more property?  Very odd, I recognize, but neighbor dispute is that neighbor (mainly his predecessor) has utilized a portion of the property as his own for more than 10 years, including maintaining trees, but now neighbor refuses to take responsibility for trees located thereupon and wants to shift the responsibility to client.  Client wants nothing to do with the trees and wants the boundary line moved to give up that portion of property.

Thank you,

Marcus
