There is a cause of action under which any one or more of the owners can file a lawsuit seeking partition, and if things are not worked out be agreement, the Court can Order the property sold and the proceeds divided. If you need the assistance of an attorney, and you are in any of the jurisdictions in which I regularly practice, I would be happy to offer my services to you for a reasonable fee.
