My existing garage was built over my neighbor's property line. Now we want to replace the old garage with a new structure on the same foundation. Do we need legal advice?

Yes. Your garage is encroaching on your neighbor's lot. You could seek an easement by prescription, which is the right to use the land because it has been previously used, or adverse possession, which would give you title to the land under the garage. If you sell the house, the buyer will want to resolve the issue.
