Well, after reading through this thread, I can only offer a few of my thoughts....
Your land and boundaries are recorded and certified on your deed as well as in the county government's offices. Since a landowner has been (presumably) paying taxes on the disputed land, that should offer him a stronger case against adverse possession.
It has always been my understanding that a survey is the final word on where the boundaries are. Surveys are based on cold, hard fact, and not on a surveyor's opinion. That is why they use their special equipment to precisely locate boundaries. I would think that even several surveyors would agree on where the boundaries are.
It would also seem to me that adverse possession is similar to squatter's rights. I would also think that a certain amount of common sense (yeah, I know) would be applied to the circumstances. BUT, if you steal my car, and drive it for several years, the still does not make it yours. Why should it not be the same as that for land????
Overall, I suggest that you listen to what the other posters have said. GET A SURVEY, GET LEGAL REPRESENTATION, and don't depend on what you read on a tractor forum. That there is the best advice you can get!!
