My grandfather’s father owned a piece of land, but I don’t have much information about it. It’s been used by someone else for around 75 years, but I recently discovered it’s mine. How can I reclaim it, and am I eligible to do so?

You can potentially reclaim the land through a legal process known as adverse possession. The law allows for ownership transfer if someone occupies land openly, continuously, and hostilely for a specific period, typically 12 years. However, you’ll need to prove your lineage to the original owner and that the current occupant doesn’t have a valid claim. Consult a lawyer to assess your specific situation and legal options.
