A disseisor is the person who has taken adverse possession of real property from the legal owner; ie., who has taken actual possession or occupation of the property without the permission of the legal owner.
Perspective in property law
[edit]In property law, the disseisor deprives the legal owner of possession or seisin of an estate in land, thus "dis-seizing" (dispossessing) the legal owner.
A disseisee, the correlative, is the legal owner who has been put out of an estate unlawfully.[1]
