The following is a press release issued by the Lewis Rice Law Firm:
Attorneys Lindsay S. Brinton and Meghan S. Largent from law firm Lewis Rice will host educational meetings in Eureka, Bayside, Fortuna and Willits June 28 and 29 to discuss the potential compensation claims of landowners who own property adjacent to the railroad line in Willits, Samoa, Korbel and Korblex that is expected to be converted to a hiking trail under the rails-to-trails program.
