Ok so heres what I need some help about. First of all I'll explain exactly what is happening. Land in a prime location in Dublin is rightfully ours. There are a number of problems which I will explain briefly. My grandad left the deeds to approximately 30 acres of land into a solicitors. My grandfather changed solicitor and wanted the deeds transferred, but the solicitor with the deeds died and no trace of the deeds have been found ever since. This happened almost 40 years ago. My grandfather left my own father and his brothers and sisters all the land in his will, but without the deeds we have no proof. Meanwhile my grandfathers step-brother, who lives beside the land in Dublin as well as other neighbours have come together and are trying to claim pieces of the land for themselves. The only things we have that would amount to being labelled as proof would be the two wills from my grandfather and great grandfather stating the land was ours plus the name of the land is still called after our surnames which suggests we are the rightfully owners of it. So what I need to know is where my family should go from here with no deeds and no hard evidence. Also is there any way the relevant information could be stored on some government archives where we could find. And if all else fails is there such thing in the Republic of Ireland as squatters rights on a large scale, i.e if we put a caravan on our land and lived on it for several years and claim it that way? All help or contacts is greatly appreciated here, thank you in advance.
