Waldo & Lyle’s reputation in eminent domain and property rights matters is well established. The firm was recommended without hesitation by a retired federal judge who presided over numerous cases in which Waldo & Lyle represented landowners—advice that came directly from an affected Orange County attorney and landowner.
If the Valley Link project is approved by the State Corporation Commission and proceeds with eminent domain, property owners who understand their rights and the proper process will be best positioned to protect their interests. This meeting is designed to provide that essential knowledge.
