With more people residing in apartments and significant changes to the Strata Titles Act being implemented strata issues are affecting more and more people.

If you are a strata owner with issues with your strata company regarding the discharge of their obligations for the proper repair and maintenance of the common property, or just how you can assert your rights as an owner, then we can help.

If you are a strata company needing advice on how to properly discharge the strata company’s statutory duties, then contact us so we can address your issues and provide guidance.

Disputes regarding strata matters are addressed in State Administrative Tribunal (SAT). We can represent you in SAT or just advise you about your rights and obligations as a strata proprietor or strata company under the Strata Titles Act.

Can I get a free consultation?

Yes. We offer a free 15 minute phone consultation or 45 minute face to face or phone consultations by prior arrangement.

How much do you charge?

This depends on which Court you would be in (should proceedings be commenced). See our fees page.

What hourly rates do you charge?

We charge at hourly rates in accordance with the costs scales issued by the various Courts and the State Administrative Tribunal.

How soon can I see a lawyer?

Generally, we will see you within a few business days of your first contact with us. How quickly our meeting occurs will depend on how much of your documentation there is for us to review our meeting.

I live or work away – can we confer by Skype or phone?

Yes, by prior arrangement.

Can you come to my home? Generally, we can do this if, for example, you have a strata issue and then we can see the property in question or, having already lodged a claim, you are in hospital and can’t come to our offices.

Can I see a solicitor after hours?

Yes (by prior arrangement).

Can you witness documents?

Focused Legal can witness your documents by prior appointment. However, a Justice of the Peace (JP) often attends the Family Court of WA to witness Family Court documents. There are also JPs who attend local government offices to witness the documents of residents.
