Civil law across Melbourne
We act for clients across every major area of Victorian civil law. Pick the one closest to your situation and start there.
-
Commercial Litigation
Business disputes turn on documents, timing and the cost of being wrong. Our Melbourne commercial litigation team handles contract breaches, partnership fall-outs, corporate governance fights and large debt recovery from first letter to final judgment.

Debt Recovery
Most debts are recovered before court if the first letter is right. We send letters of demand, statutory demands and enforce judgments across Victoria for businesses, body corporates and individuals.

Contract Disputes
Contracts win and lose business. We draft, review and litigate commercial contracts across Melbourne and Victoria, from supply agreements to share-sale documents.
Learn more -
Property Disputes
Property disputes turn on title, lease terms and timing. We handle commercial and retail lease disputes, caveats, fencing arguments and body-corporate fights across Victoria.
Learn more -
Wills & Estates
A contested will is rarely just legal. We act for left-out family members, executors and beneficiaries across Victoria, from family provision claims to executor disputes.

VCAT Matters
VCAT looks informal until you get there. We appear in building, consumer and tenancy lists across the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
-
How much does a Melbourne civil lawyer cost?
The first call is free. On it, a lawyer tells you whether you have a case and what running it would realistically involve, which depends on how far things have gone and how the other side plays it. You decide where to go from there.
-
How fast can you act on a new matter?
Within business hours we reply inside an hour and can start work the same day for urgent matters. Out of hours, we read messages from the morning.
-
Do you act for both individuals and businesses?
Yes. Our caseload is roughly half individual, half business. We act for sole traders, family businesses, ASX-listed companies and individual clients across Victoria.
-
What areas of civil law do you handle?
Commercial litigation, contract disputes, property disputes, employment, defamation, wills and estate disputes, debt recovery, building disputes, professional negligence, family law and more.
