The California legislature is considering a bill that could increase the likelihood condemnees will be reimbursed its litigation expenses. Under the current law, a condemnee can recover litigation expenses, such as attorneys’ and experts’ fees, if a court finds that the condemning agency’s final offer of compensation was unreasonable and that the final demand of the condemnee was reasonable when considering the compensation ultimately awarded. AB 408 provides that if the condemnor’s offer is lower than 90 percent of the compensation awarded, the court must award litigation expenses.   That bill is still in committee.
