SCW Attorney Secures Summary Judgment In Favor of HCW Development Company, LLC in Branson Landing Lawsuit
Summers Compton Wells attorney Steve Hiotis secured a Judgment in favor of HCW Development Company, LLC in a long standing land title dispute. The Judgment, entered on October 6, 2017, disposes of the claimant’s final remaining claim for adverse possession of a portion of land on which the Branson Landing is situated, and brings an end at the trial court level to a dispute that has been pending for fourteen years. The entry of the Judgment marks yet another major victory for SCW in a seven year process of protecting HCW’s interests in the Branson Landing following the entry of an erroneous judgment in January of 2010.
