Douglas Kershaw Poulin

Douglas K. Poulin has over 25 years of experience representing property owners, co-owners, landlords, investors, and businesses in real estate and business disputes.

Mr. Poulin’s practice focuses on civil litigation involving real property, including quiet title actions, partition disputes, easement and boundary conflicts, construction defect claims, contractor and mechanic’s lien disputes, real estate nondisclosure, and HOA matters. These disputes often involve competing claims to ownership, control, or financial responsibility, where timing, documentation, and strategy directly affect the outcome.

He has handled matters through all stages of litigation, including pleadings, law and motion, discovery, mediation, arbitration, and trial. His experience includes bench trials, complex arbitrations, and multi-party disputes involving significant financial exposure. He has appeared in Superior Courts throughout California and regularly resolves disputes through both litigation and negotiated outcomes.

Mr. Poulin is often brought into matters where a property dispute has stalled, escalated, or reached a point where decisive legal action is required. His approach is direct and practical: identify the controlling documents, assess leverage early, and move the matter toward resolution as efficiently as possible.

Clients work directly with Mr. Poulin and receive clear communication, candid evaluations, and a focused litigation strategy from the outset.

Real estate disputes rarely improve with delay. Whether the issue involves title, co-ownership, boundaries, or contractor claims, early analysis can materially affect the result.

A short consultation can help determine the most effective next step.
