When you’re looking at buying, selling or leasing property, having an experienced property lawyer and/or conveyancer is critical. We can provide both services; property law and conveyancing, all under the same roof.

What’s the difference between a conveyancer and a property lawyer?

A conveyancer generally assists in the process of conveying the title to a property, from the seller to the buyer.

A property lawyer goes further by advising on:

who the buyer should be;
the tax and duty issues arising for the seller and the buyer; and
consideration and advice on issues that may affect the value or enjoyment of the property.

We have conveyancers in our practice who work under the supervision of our property lawyers.
