This department is for disputes over a property: who owns it, on what basis, what the register records and where the facts on the ground differ. The transaction itself — a sale, a registration, a lease — is handled by property transactions.
What this department handles
- Proving and defending title, and correcting entries that do not match the facts.
- Co-ownership and partition between partners and heirs.
- Occupation of a property without title, and claims to recover it.
- Boundary disputes, easements and other rights in rem.
- Disputes over inherited property where the shares must be established before anything can be done with it.
Why an owner abroad should start early
A property nobody is watching accumulates a situation on the ground that is hard to unpick later: an occupier who has been there a long time, an entry never corrected, or shares never established, so nothing can be done with the property at all. Checking the register early is cheaper and faster than a dispute that begins years afterwards.
What helps at the first consultation
A description and location of the property as precisely as you know it, any document you hold — a title deed, a judgment, a sale contract, a register extract — and the name of whoever is in possession now, if you know it.
How your file is handled while you are abroad
You start by requesting a consultation through the form or on WhatsApp. The legal team reviews your situation and assigns the right specialist. The first consultation is free, and in it we set out what can be done and which documents you will need. Where the matter has to be followed before Syrian courts or authorities, that is done under a power of attorney drawn up and authenticated at the Syrian consulate or embassy in your country of residence, or before a local notary with the required attestations; we tell you the wording you need and the steps that apply where you live. From there everything runs by message, voice call or video call, with no need for you to travel.
