What is the Conveyancing Dispute Resolution Scheme?

If you are involved in a dispute concerning a Contract for the Sale of Land in NSW, and have engaged Blue Ocean Law Group℠ to act as your solicitor, as members of the NSW Law Society we are able to offer the Law Society’s Conveyancing Dispute Resolution Scheme to you as an option (provided the below requirements are met) to provide assistance in resolving your dispute.

Minimum Requirements

This Scheme is available provided there is acceptance by the disputing parties of the following pre-conditions:

✅ Both parties and their solicitors must agree on the issue(s) submitted for determination;

✅ Both parties and their solicitors must agree to abide by the determination of the Committee; and

✅ The amount in dispute must not exceed $25,000.

How determinations are made

In arriving at a determination the Committee considers:

⚖️ The terms of the contract;

⚖️ Statute law;

⚖️ Decided Court cases; and

⚖️ What is fair and reasonable in all the circumstances.

The Committee is not bound by its own precedents and may refuse to make a determination where the majority of the Committee considers it appropriate.

The Committee’s decision is provided to the claimants in writing without the reasons for the determination.

Important information

Participation in the Scheme by the individual solicitors who serve on the Property Law Committee of the Law Society is voluntary.

The Property Law Committee considers and determines disputes within a reasonable time.

Its proceedings are at the discretion of the Chair of the Committee.

The Law Society, its employees and members of the Property Law Committee are not liable to either party to a dispute for any loss or damage directly or indirectly arising in the course of handling the dispute.

The Scheme is run by the Law Society’s Property Law Committee and aims to offer an impartial and authoritative alternative to litigation or arbitration.

Under the Scheme, the Committee is available to hear disputes and provide the parties with a binding determination.

How to apply

Parties wishing to refer a dispute to the Property Law Committee are required to forward their completed and signed Conveyancing Dispute Resolution Scheme Joint Referral Notice, together with submissions and documentation, to the Law Society’s Property Law Committee.

Parties to a dispute may be required to provide further information to the Committee if it considers the original information insufficient.

★★★★★ Lifesaving Lawyers: Everything was on the line. My wealthy, scheming ex had tricked me into a position of weakness and had commenced the formal process to attempt to evict me from my own home, simultaneously pressuring me to accept his low-ball settlement offers. After I engaged James D. Ford, Esq. at Blue Ocean, everything slowly started turning around, starting with the looming threat of eviction in California being removed. Mr. Ford and the entire Blue Ocean team were absolutely professional at all times, listening and fully absorbing the details of my story, my drowning in a constant stream of litigation motions in California, combined with my uncertainty regarding my legal rights in Australia. After 2.5 years of litigation to date, our combined efforts have culminated in a major courtroom victory, which effectively means that I will now be paid my full & fair legal entitlement.

An illegal website is trying to use our name [a US-hosted duplicate of the entire business eCommerce Website] to gain advantages and scam customers. All the major search engines ignore it. James has initiated a DMCA takedown and will resolve the issue within one week. [Details Added for Clarity]. He understands how things work and knows the reason behind the issue.
