You may need to seek the advice of an attorney who is familiar with your state laws regarding adverse claims. You can read much more about adverse possession at the link below.


Does Alabama have an adverse possession law?

Yes it appears that Alabama Code §6-5-200 allows adverse possession after 10 years under recorded color of title, and, otherwise, after 20 years. The 20 years is not in the statute, but it appears to be in Alabama's Common Law. On its face, it appears to be a standard adverse possession statute, but I would disclaim that I am neither a lawyer nor a citizen of Alabama. You can research the statute or Alabama case law on FindLaw.com. Hope this helps you a little.
