Disputes are often related to negotiated easement terms.
In the context of easements, landowners will often ask a pipeline company for an indemnity agreement that will shift risk and liability for the company’s use of the property away from the landowner in the event of a third party claim. Grantees should take care to avoid indemnity provisions that provide for the grantor’s indemnity from third party claims resulting from grantor’s own negligence. This video reviews legal formalities including indemnity, assignability, dispute resolution, execution and recordation.
