New Hampshire Road Law Transactions
Common issues recently handled by our real estate attorneys include the following:
- Determining whether a municipality has the obligation to maintain a road;
- Determining the rights of abutters in so-called "paper streets" (streets that are platted but never built);
- Determining the rights of third parties to use a road or paper street; and
- Determining ownership of the land "underneath" a road or paper street.
As a service to practitioners, engineers and other persons interested in researching the status of roads, Alfano Law Office, PLLC has assembled information on the manner in which certain municipalities maintain records on roads. Included is a list of over seventy-five Southern New Hampshire municipalities. This NH road law resource is available free of charge.
