How we help with expropriation and compensation claim

Evidence and document review
Our review covers expropriation notice, title, parcel plan, valuation report, comparable evidence and compensation payment records. We identify what supports your position and what needs clarification or further evidence.
Does the 2025 expropriation law govern every compensation file?
No. Cabinet Decision 177 preserves the previous law for cases whose decisions approving commencement of the procedures predate the new law’s commencement. The new statute provides a 120-day commencement period after publication. Obtain the start-approval decision before selecting valuation rules, compensation components or an objection procedure. Identify the formal decision, affected parcel, valuation date and compensation offered or paid. Separate a challenge to the decision from a valuation objection or payment delay. Preserve notification evidence because the available response depends on the applicable process and stage.

Lease Termination - Rental - Commercial - Mall

Termination of Commercial Lease Due to Ejar Data Error

The case concerns a commercial lease documented on the “Ejar” platform with data inconsistent with reality: the property was registered as a single unit despite comprising eight units. That prevented the tenant from fully occupying and subletting the premises. CounselO Legal reviewed the case and developed a strategy for a termination claim through the claimant’s representative while reserving financial rights. The matter concluded with termination through a binding judicial settlement, achieving the client's practical objective and preserving her financial claims.

Appeal analysis

Rent vs. Enjoyment in Commercial Leasing

CounselO Legal assessed an appeal concerning commercial rent where inaccurate property data allegedly prevented the agreed use and subletting of units. The analysis linked the contract, Ejar correspondence and use records to the extent of the landlord’s performance. It concerned an asserted impediment to the agreed benefit, rather than a tenant simply choosing not to use premises that were available.
