It sounds like your friend had the land surveyed and has the deed. To determine if he is the rightful owner of the property, he needs to have a title seach done if he did not before. Then supply that to the neighbor to prove his ownership.

Get the land surveyed to determine the property lines. Also, have a title company do a check to properly determine ownership.
