property claim
Title dispute filing
A property claim is a formal assertion of ownership or rights over something—typically land, real estate, or resources.
In legal contexts, it's often a demand for compensation related to property damage or loss: She filed a property claim with her insurance company after the flood.
Historically, property claims were declarations of intent to own unoccupied land, as when settlers staked claims during westward expansion.
