Understanding Easements in Texas
An easement is a nonpossessory interest in land. The holder has the right to use the land only for a specific purpose. For example, one may grant an easement to an electrical company to run utility lines. This does not give ownership or full use of the land to that company.
Our attorneys assist clients with many types of easements, such as:
- Utility easements
- Right-of-way easements
- Historic preservation easements
- Construction easements
- Driveway easements
- Beach access easements
- Conservation easements
Easements may be public or private. A public easement grants the rights of land usage to the public, whereas a private easement grants use to a specific party or parties. Public easements may be created by a dedication of the property from the owner, by prescription, or by the condemnation of the government. Public easements on city streets give the local government the right to install water, gas, and sewer lines for the benefit of the entire community.
