DW Fox Tucker Lawyers’ team has significant experience providing legal advice relating to strata and community title matters. We have acted for owners, strata and community corporations, body corporate managers, builders, developers, and financiers involved in multi-unit dwellings and mixed-use developments.
Strata and community title law is complicated and diverse as it interacts with many other pieces of legislation. Navigation of the legal framework for corporations requires specialist attention and expert knowledge. Our lawyers understand the complexities of the relevant legislation and regulations in South Australia.
Whether it is amending bylaws or plans, advising on governance issues like voting rights and quorums, defect disputes, or assisting with the current minefield of combustible cladding and building fire safety notices, our team has a depth of knowledge in this area.
Our strata and community titles practice is led by Director Amanda Humble, who is on the Board of the Strata Community Association (SA/NT).
Our broader team’s significant expertise in property law, construction, conveyancing, litigation, and debt recovery complements our service offering for clients in the strata and community title industry.
