Forced Sale & Cash Settlement Litigation

A forced sale claim is a procedure by which a redevelopment association demands the market-price sale of land and building owners who did not consent to the association's formation or did not apply for unit allocation, while a cash settlement claim is a procedure for settling in cash with members who did not apply for unit allocation. Both proceedings are essential legal mechanisms for the smooth advancement of urban improvement projects, concentrating on specialized legal issues such as the adequacy of appraisals, identification of sale and settlement targets, and market value assessment standards.

PYEONG AN's construction and real estate team — led by attorneys specializing in urban improvement projects — draws on experience representing both the association side in forced sale and cash settlement litigation and the land/building owner side in defensive proceedings, and formulates litigation strategies optimized to the specific circumstances of each matter.

Because the outcome of appraisals directly determines the settlement amount in forced sale and cash settlement litigation, we bring differentiated expertise to verifying the adequacy of appraisals, filing for re-appraisal, and litigating disputes over market value assessment standards.

Through close collaboration with our urban improvement association advisory team, we provide seamless legal services covering everything from consent rate management at the association formation stage to strategic timing decisions for forced sale and cash settlement claims, and through to post-litigation relocation and eviction procedures.
