OUR PRACTICE AREAS
Farmer's Law Group features attorneys and professionals that can handle any agriculture law problem. Our team of skilled lawyers has experience in business, environmental law, real estate, insurance, and regulatory disputes affecting agricultural operations nationwide. We also help structure joint ventures, succession planning, and assist in compliance filings with state and federal agencies.
Crop Insurance Claims
Extreme weather, drought, wind and hale, and other natural disasters cause damage to crops annually. Insurance companies, however, make their money denying rightful claims, or undervaluing crops. Our agriculture lawyers will work to overturn your denial and get your operation the best payment on your claim.
We are experienced in arbitration, mediation, appeals, and litigation of claims, including those taken to federal court. To learn more about your potential claims, call us for a free consultation.
Farm Lease Agreements
Our agriculture lawyers represent a number of farmers and agribusinesses in complicated lease agreements. The wrong terms in a farm lease agreement can cut into your profits, impact your insurance coverages, and create headaches. Important provisions covering issues such as improvements to the land, management and use of structures, and conservation maintenance need to be carefully understood and negotiated.
Don't trust your lease agreement to an Artificial Intelligence chat bot. Avoid the hidden mistakes that will cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars. Instead, trust our law school educated and seasoned attorneys who represent agricultural entities across a wide variety of agriculture industries to protect your business.

PREPARED FOR

LOOKING TO AVOID
FUTURE PROBLEMS?
Livestock and agricultural operations are among the most regulated businesses in the nation. Farming practices on agricultural land are subject to dozens of overlapping state and federal laws — from endangered species protections to water use rights — and the political landscape can shift quickly.
Our agriculture lawyers help family farms, farms and ranches, and large agricultural operations plan for growth around these regulations. Beginning with zoning, land use, and business structure, we help farmers and landowners prevent problems that could otherwise cost hundreds of thousands of dollars later. Our attorneys also handle unpaid or underpaid crop insurance claims, including disputes tied to the claims process under the Risk Management Agency.
