Most property transactions are routine. Some aren't — a sale by an estate, a transfer after a separation, property held in a trust, an off-the-plan contract with problems, or a section 32 that doesn't say what it should. Those are the transactions we take on in Hillside and across Melbourne's west, along with conveyancing for clients we already act for — handled by lawyers from contract to settlement.
Because we are a law firm, the conveyancing sits alongside the rest of your affairs: the estate that is selling, the property settlement that is transferring title, the duty that may or may not be payable. We review the contract and section 32 before you commit, tell you plainly what is in them, and act through to settlement. Our fee is quoted once we have seen the contract, so it reflects the work your transaction actually needs.
In Hillside, conveyancing often starts when someone's made an offer on a property or is preparing to sell. You'll need to gather documents: the contract of sale, title deeds or records, details of any mortgages or loans against the property, and information about what chattels (things like curtains or garden sheds) are included. If you're buying, you'll want to know about any planning overlays, easements, or disputes affecting the land. If you're selling, disclosure of defects or known issues matters. The first step is usually to bring what you have to a lawyer, who can explain what the contract says, identify what searches and inspections are needed, and walk you through settlement.
Send us the contract and section 32 before you sign. We'll tell you what's in it, and quote for acting on it.
Leave your name and number — we call you straight back, usually within 2 minutes (8am–8pm), to understand your situation and book you in with the right lawyer. No cost, no obligation. Outside those hours we'll text you and call first thing.
We meet clients online right across Victoria — or in person at 911 High Street, Reservoir VIC 3073.
