What Can Property Dispute Lawyers in Melbourne Do for Me?

Property disputes can be challenging, especially when they involve substantial commercial interests, high-value assets, or large development projects. A property dispute lawyer can help you navigate the complicated legal process and provide representation if your case goes to court. Whether you are involved in a land ownership dispute regarding a development site, a commercial lease conflict, or a dispute between landlords and commercial tenants, early legal intervention is necessary to achieve a fair and commercially sensible outcome.

Some of the most common problems that a lawyer for property disputes can help resolve include:

Boundary disputes over commercial properties or development sites: Conflicts can arise over boundary lines, particularly in large property developments or high-value commercial spaces. A solicitor will review the title deeds, work with land surveyors to establish the accuracy of boundary lines, and review any agreements between the parties involved.

Contract breaches: A property dispute lawyer might need to get involved in a situation where one or more parties fail to comply with the terms of a valid property contract. Legal representation ensures that settlements are negotiated effectively and that your commercial and property interests are protected.

Commercial rental disputes: Landlords and commercial tenants frequently encounter disagreements over rent increases, maintenance responsibilities, lease renewals, and termination notices. A legal expert can assist in negotiating settlements and drafting agreements to help resolve disputes efficiently and protect your interests.

Ownership disputes involving trusts or family-owned commercial properties: In cases where property ownership is tied to family groups or trusts, we provide legal advice to resolve disputes with an emphasis on protecting high-value assets and maintaining commercial stability.

Non-disclosure of material facts: Disputes often arise when a purchaser of a commercial property discovers defects or issues not disclosed during the sale. Our lawyers review sale contracts, assess disclosure obligations, and assist clients in pursuing claims for compensation where appropriate.

How do you charge?

Trust is one of our core values. We pride ourselves on not causing 'bill shock'. Our usual approach is to provide you with a clear and transparent fee quote to ensure that there are no surprises. You can then make an informed decision about whether you want to proceed or not.

Do I have to go to Court?

Achieving a mutually agreed outcome outside of Court is usually the first port of call. If that is not possible, seeking the assistance of the Court may be an available option.

When should I get a lawyer involved?

Time is usually of the essence with disputes. We have seen situations in the past where issues have been caused due to clients coming to us too late after the dispute originally arose. So, it is usually sensible to get in touch with a lawyer once the dispute arises.
