Somonauk lies at the southern edge of DeKalb County and reaches into neighboring LaSalle County, a small community set among farmland where boundary lines can be long and old. Disputes here often involve historic fences, hedgerows, and corners weathered by decades of field work. Retracing the boundary from 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.

Somonauk is a village of about 1,786 residents, centered in Somonauk Township with a portion extending into LaSalle County; its DeKalb County seat is Sycamore. For the DeKalb County portion, deeds and plats are recorded with the DeKalb County Recorder / Clerk & Recorder, the record we research to reconstruct the chain of title. The Kishwaukee River watershed shapes drainage here, so low-lying acreage near tributaries may involve floodplain edges. When a fence line or encroachment is disputed in Somonauk, our retracement ties the deeded description to the physical evidence found on the ground.
It depends on which county your specific parcel lies in. For the DeKalb County portion of Somonauk, recorded deeds and plats are held by the DeKalb County Recorder / Clerk & Recorder in Sycamore, and we confirm the correct office before researching your title.
Yes. A boundary dispute survey retraces the deeded boundary and compares it to a hedgerow, fence, or other long-standing feature, showing whether that feature aligns with the true line.
We use the recorded deed and plat, any prior surveys, and physical evidence such as monuments and iron pins found on the parcel, then measure existing improvements against that line.
