    Property Law – FAQs

    Yes, if you want to make sure you’re understanding what you’re signing, it’s best to get advice in relation to your contract. A property lawyer who is familiar with the property transactions and the industry you’re entering into can identify terms that you can renegotiate for better profitability or protection.

    During a conveyancing transaction in relation to a purchase or sale, a property lawyer is able to assist you in the preparation of the documents (contract of sale and disclosure statement) and negotiate in relation to the clauses contained in the contract to best protect you.
