Tomares, et ux. v. Poss, et al.

Circuit Court for Montgomery County, Case No. 418365V: A family retained Ms. Feuerherd and Miller, Miller & Canby after an old gravel road, which provided the sole access to their property, was cut off by a neighbor who challenged that the road was a private driveway.

Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Case No. 24C18005103: Ms. Feuerherd represented a couple who had owned and operated and/or leased a corner grocery store for more than 25 years, before Baltimore City targeted the property for condemnation.
