Property disputes & advisory

Overview

Few ambitious projects proceed to conclusion without some disagreement. Our Property Disputes & Advisory team helps minimise distraction and delay by maintaining cool heads and commercial focus, and by using our legal expertise and dispute resolution experience to find acceptable solutions – even in fraught situations.

Our Property Disputes & Advisory team uses its experience to quickly identify and mitigate key commercial risks, manage costs, negotiate and achieve resolution and, importantly, keep the project on track and relationships intact.
