Our Services
Residential Conveyancing
Buying or selling a residential property? We handle every stage of the transaction from contract review, negotiation of special conditions, liaising with agents and lenders, and completion through PEXA settlements. Our approach is focused on making the process smooth and stress-free, while ensuring your legal and financial position is protected.
Commercial Sales and Acquisitions
We act for purchasers and vendors of commercial property, from offices and retail centres to industrial sites. Our role includes contract preparation and review, due diligence, negotiations and settlement. We ensure all financial, planning, zoning and leasing issues are identified early so you can proceed with confidence.
Strata By-Laws and Compliance
We draft, review and amend strata by-laws to ensure they comply with legislation and reflect the needs of the Owners’ Corporation. This includes rules on pets, renovations, parking and noise. We also advise on enforcement, disputes and compliance with the Strata Schemes Management Act 2015 (NSW).
Mortgages and Finance
Whether you are refinancing, securing funding for a purchase or providing finance as a lender, we prepare and review mortgage and loan documentation. We also act in negotiations with banks, private lenders and guarantors, ensuring that terms are clearly understood and that your rights are safeguarded.
Commercial and Retail Leasing
We represent both landlords and tenants in drafting, reviewing and negotiating retail and commercial leases. Our advice covers rent structures, outgoings, incentives, fit-out obligations, assignments, deeds of settlement, breach notices, subleasing and compliance with the Retail Leases Act 1994 (NSW). Our goal is to secure terms that balance risk and commercial opportunity.
Aboriginal Land Rights
We can act for Local Aboriginal Land Councils in managing their property requirements following a successful land claim. This includes undertaking due diligence on leases, licences and other registered interests that transfer to the Council, advising on compliance obligations and negotiating with tenants, licensees and third parties. We also assist with structuring transactions and property arrangements to ensure long-term community benefit.
We also advise councils, developers and community groups affected by Aboriginal land claims. Our work includes assessing how existing leases, licences and development consents are impacted, negotiating with Land Councils to secure ongoing rights or new agreements. Our focus is on ensuring compliance with statutory obligations while protecting both commercial and community interests.
Local Council Advice
Our firm regularly advises property owners, developers and councils on matters involving easements, infrastructure contributions, and compliance with local government legislation.
Crown Land Advice
Crown land has unique legal complexities. We assist in negotiating licences, leases and purchase arrangements under the Crown Land Management Act 2016 (NSW). Our experience includes advising businesses, councils and not-for-profits on the use and occupation and transfer of Crown land.
Easements, Covenants and Rights of Way
We prepare and negotiate easements, covenants and rights of way to facilitate development, utilities and access arrangements. Our services include drafting deeds, liaising with surveyors and registration with NSW Land Registry Services. We also act in disputes where rights are unclear or being obstructed.
Property Disputes
When disputes arise whether it relates to contracts, boundaries, strata matters or lease obligations we provide strategic advice and representation. We aim to resolve issues through negotiation and mediation, but when litigation is required, we act decisively in the NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal (NCAT) and the courts to protect your interests.
