Coal City sits in southern Grundy County with a residential core that reaches into neighboring Will County, and its boundary questions blend town-lot encroachments with the legacy of an area shaped by former mining ground. Disputes commonly involve older fences, driveways built up to the line, and corners disturbed over time. A retracement grounded in the deed record clarifies where each parcel legally ends.
A boundary dispute survey is a careful retracement of your property lines, backed by research of deeds, prior surveys and physical evidence. It gives you — and, if needed, your attorney — a defensible determination of where the true boundary lies.

Coal City has a population of about 5,571 and is centered in Coal City Township, part of which extends into Will County; its Grundy County seat is Morris. Recorded deeds and plats for the Grundy County portion are filed with the Grundy County Recorder’s Office, the record we research to establish a chain of title. Drainage across the county runs toward the Illinois River corridor, with interior waterways such as the Mazon River and Aux Sable Creek, so some tracts can involve floodplain considerations. When a fence or encroachment is contested in Coal City, our boundary dispute survey compares the deeded description against monuments and improvements found on the ground.
They often arise from fences set off the recorded line, driveways built near the boundary, and corners disturbed over time. We retrace the deeded line from the Grundy County record and compare it to that physical evidence to find the true boundary.
It can. For parcels within Grundy County, recorded deeds and plats are held by the Grundy County Recorder’s Office in Morris; for any portion in Will County we confirm and use that county’s records so the retracement is based on the correct filings.
Yes. We retrace the true line and locate the driveway relative to it, documenting any encroachment so you and your neighbor can resolve it with clear facts.
