Maybe.  It depends on if you can meet the requirements of adverse possession.  If your access was granted by permission and the new owner now denies your access you are unlikely to be able to meet the adverse possession requirements.  However, if your access was as a result of your unchallenged use then you may be able to sustain a claim.  I assume that you have an alternative access. You may want to consult an attorney.   Good Luck! Don Eby
