Re: Someone buried in my plot

Sounds like a good case. However, any attorney would have to carefully read the contract terms before giving a more definitive response.

Generally, you cannot sue for emotional distress arising out of a breach of conract. However, burial situations are sometimes an exception.

Again, an attorney would have to take a closer look at the facts and review the relevant caselaw before rendering an opinion.

I wish I could give a more concrete answer but yours is not as simple a situation as it may seem.

Re: Someone buried in my plot

You may have a case; I would need to review the contract and your payment records. I suggest you take photos of the plot (or have someone do it for you). I handle cases like this on contigenc. Please feel free to contact me.

Re: Someone buried in my plot

If you paid for cemetary plots, you should have a deed to the real property, and some sort of receipt. Also, I would think the purchase came with some kind of map or diagram. Check your documents. Good luck. Best, M. E. Zuller
