    Neighbors survey of property
    My neighbor recently had the line surved between his and my property because I am in a land dispute with another lady. We join on two sides of my property. He only had one side surveyed and the line is not like him or I think. Does anyone know the legal requirements for surveying in Scott County Virginia?

    Check with the county clerk. What are the credentials for the surveyor? Why did you hire him?

    I Had A Survey Done For The Same Reasons, Give The Man 30 Days To Get His Buildings, Fences And Asphalt Driveway Off My Land. Well On The 28th Day I Drove The Bull Dozer Up To The Area Of The Disputed Line, Shut It Down, And Had My Boy Drive Me Back Across The Farm. Well Needless To Say When I Went Up There The Next Day, Low And Behold, They Were Out There Jacking Up Their Buildings, And Tearing Down Their New Privacy Fence. What Was The Privacy Fence Even For, It Is About 1800 Feet To My Nearest Barn? Ohh Well, On The 31st Day, I Did Not Get To Use My Dozer,(dang It), But I Did Drive Steel T Post Every 10 Feet Down Through His Precious New Blacktop Asphalt Drive Way, And Now There Is A Fence Dividing Us. And The Corner Post Is Now Both A Steel Rebar Driven Into The Ground And A 12" X 8' Section Of Telephone Pole . And It Is A Larger Diameter On The Top Side Of The Corner Post, Cause I Had To Flip It Over And Put It In The Ground Upside Down , Because It Would Not Fit With The Larger End Pointing Down.
    If You Get Your Line Established, Put Large Post. And 7 Strands Of Barbed Wire Fencing. It Works Nicely.

    First his dispute is with another neighbor. Second you are advising an adversarial solution where no animosity appears to exist. Neighbors stay neighbors and going the advisary route should be a last resort.
