Q: I have a well share contract issue about a well permitted to me on my property. I voluntarily offered a well share.
The neighbor with whom I offered to share with had me sign a well share agreement. I didn't realize how unfair it was to me until now when I am trying to get her off my well. She has abused my property rights in many ways since that was originated in 1998 and I want her off my well. She was supposed to pay $15/month electricity charge but has failed to do so since 2000. That part was a gentleman's agreement and not designated in the well share agreement altho the agreement does call for her to pay maintenance. She has taken down survey markers, damaged my property with unapproved work, etc. Having trouble finding a lawyer in my area. I need help to stop the disrespectful treatment of my property rights and get her off my well. I gave her a year's notice that I will terminate the well share agreement. A year is up May 23. My previous lawyer retired. She got a lawyer & is threatening to takeover my well!! I need an attorney who will actively deal with this.
