HomeServicesBoundary Dispute Surveys › Deerfield, IL

Deerfield is a mature suburban village of established neighborhoods where older fences, hedges, and mature trees frequently sit along shared lines that predate current surveys. Where a maintained edge no longer matches the record, only a retracement to the original monuments can confirm the true boundary. Deed research supports that finding.

What a boundary dispute survey provides

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.

Deerfield & Lake County specifics

Deerfield, with about 19,196 residents, lies within West Deerfield Township in Lake County, whose seat is Waukegan (a small part extends into Cook County). For the Lake County portion, deeds, plats, and prior surveys are filed with the Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office, and confirming the governing county is part of the retracement. The village’s older lots and long-standing landscaping mean maintained lines here can differ from the surveyed line, driving disputes. Pi Surveying reestablishes the older-lot corners and marks the true line so a hedge or fence encroachment is settled from the record.

Frequently asked questions

Records sit in the county that contains your parcel, so we confirm whether your Deerfield lot is in Lake or Cook before pulling the deeds and plats for the survey.

Long-established homes come with fences and mature landscaping placed before current surveys, so the maintained line can differ from the recorded one. A retracement reconciles them.

The Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office in Waukegan holds the deeds, plats, and prior surveys for the Lake County section.
