Church Property Disputes

All of the mainline denominations are struggling with internal progressive elements which seek to modify—some would say tear apart—traditional notions of doctrine and theology. Orthodox congregations sometimes decide that reform is futile and separation is the only answer. This conflict gives rise to disputes over the possession and control of property held by the local churches. We have special expertise assisting churches with property disputes, both before and if necessary, through litigation.  Call one of our professionals today to learn how we can help you protect your ministry's property.

At Shapiro Buchman Provine we understand, and we can help.
