Basically if someone has enclosed an area and has actively been using the area for a period of 15 years (may vary in different states) they can legally make a claim on the land. However, it is a costly endeavour and realistically your typical neighbour isn't going to pursue it. The fact that you have just caused a change of ownership for the land already makes it difficult for anyone to attempt an adverse possession of the land. Just pay and get a survey done, to establish if in fact the fence is out. If it is out by a large amount, approach your neighbour and say that you want to put in a new fence on the boundary but don't tell them that the boundary is out. Ask them to pay for half the new fence which they a required to pay. If they don't want to pay the simplest thing to do is tell them that you will pay for the whole lot. They will feel like they have got a win and then reestablish the fence on the correct line. Once the old fence is down and the new fence is up on the surveyed boundary there is nothing they can do with regards a possible adverse possession claim, not that I'd expect they would.
