Our approach ensures that each client’s legal matters are addressed in a practical and effective manner, reflecting our dedication to their individual needs. In the area of Owners Corporation Law, LFS Legal offers extensive experience across all facets of this field. We act for some of the largest strata title insurers and body corporate management firms in Victoria. Our services encompass fee recovery, building defect claims, management disputes, liability issues, management advice, and drafting lease and licence agreements for common property. We are recognised for our ability to navigate the complexities of Owners Corporation regulations, including enforcing rules, timely recovery of fees and levies through VCAT, use of common property, amending plans of subdivision, and resolving disputes efficiently. Our Property Law team provides broad-ranging support, handling everything from straightforward transactions to complex estate and property development matters. We pride ourselves on not only delivering legal expertise but also ensuring timeliness, responsiveness and accessibility throughout the process. Our property services include conveyancing for purchases and sales, advice on owners corporation matters, leasing (both retail and commercial), licence agreements, plans of subdivision, and property development projects. For conveyancing, we offer a comprehensive service covering all the necessary steps for a standard purchase, such as preparing the transfer of land documents, liaising with vendors and financial institutions, adjusting rates and fees, arranging settlement, and notifying relevant authorities. On the sales side, we prepare Vendor’s Statements and Contracts for sale or auction without any upfront cost, with legal fees payable upon settlement. This approach provides clarity and ease for clients managing property transactions.
