Land & Property lawyers in Sri Lanka
“Someone is building on my land, or the boundary is wrong.”
Land disputes are the most common civil cases in Sri Lanka, and many turn on a deed written generations ago. A property lawyer studies the chain of title, the survey plans and possession, then advises whether to negotiate, file a partition action or seek an injunction.

Questions people ask
What is a partition action?
It is a District Court case that divides land held in common between co-owners, or orders a sale if the land cannot be divided fairly.
Can I stop construction on disputed land quickly?
Yes. The court can grant an interim injunction or an enjoining order, sometimes within days, if you show a strong case and urgency.
