Property Disputes

Disputes Arising in Property Matters

Many legal transactions involve property, and disputes between parties often involve property. Therefore, property law disputes occur regularly and often involve a party’s real property, or a party’s interests in land. Ownership of real property and access to business premises may be critical to a party’s business relationships and the conduct of a party’s business.

Australian property law disputes can be very complex and involve competing interests in the same land, or a challenge to the indefeasibility of a registered interest. The consequences of a property dispute may be very serious to a party’s interest. For example, a party may be at risk of being excluded from its business premises because of an alleged breach of the terms of a lease, or a mortgagee may have entered into possession of a property in order to sell the property even though the mortgagor does not want to lose the property.
