Windham, Vermont real property lawyers represented the parties in a Slander of Title Action.
Defendants James and Barbara Kolodziej discovered that a parcel of land near their property was seemingly omitted from plaintiff Sarah Massucco's deed. They arranged for the heirs of a previous owner of the land to deed that parcel to them. Defendants neither talked to plaintiff-who they saw use the parcel-nor confirmed that the heirs owned the parcel. After recording their own deed, defendants informed plaintiff that they owned the parcel and asked her to remove her belongings. Plaintiff sued. The trial court granted plaintiff's claim for deed reformation on summary judgment and concluded Mr. Kolodziej slandered plaintiff's title after a bench trial.
