PROPERTY DISPUTE LAWYERS

Resolving Complex Property Disputes with Clarity and Precision

Property disputes can be deeply personal, highly technical, and financially disruptive. Whether you’re facing a boundary disagreement, a joint ownership issue, or a dispute over a failed settlement, clear legal advice is essential to protect your rights and achieve a practical outcome.

At Enterprise Legal, we assist clients across Queensland in a wide range of real property disputes. From joint ownership disagreements to title corrections and encroachment issues, we offer clear strategy, calm guidance, and commercial focus, without unnecessary legal escalation.

We also offer fixed or capped fees wherever possible, including for title reviews, dispute notices, and early-stage negotiations.

If your issue relates to leasing, easements, caveats, or a compulsory acquisition, visit our dedicated pages for those services.

Types of Property Disputes We Commonly Resolve

We assist clients with a wide range of property-related legal disputes, including:

  • Co-ownership disputes, including disagreements between family members, ex-partners, or investors over use, sale, or contributions
  • Boundary and encroachment issues, including disputes over fences, structures or claimed access
  • Adverse possession or mistaken title claims, where ownership is contested due to long-term use or registration error
  • Neighbourhood disputes, including interference with access, stormwater runoff or retaining wall damage
  • Settlement-related disputes, where one party fails to settle, terminates without grounds, or delays unreasonably
  • Incorrect title recordings, including errors in ownership, easement descriptions or lot boundaries
  • Disputes over conditions in off-the-plan or developer contracts, particularly delays or contract variations

These matters often involve both legal and factual complexity, especially where land values are high, or parties have a long history.

Our Approach

Our role is to bring clarity and strategy to an otherwise frustrating experience. Whether you are dealing with a neighbour, co-owner, developer, or buyer or seller of land, we help you understand your rights, assess your position, and take the next step, whether that’s negotiation, mediation or formal proceedings.

We regularly assist clients with:

  • preparing and responding to legal correspondence
  • registering or removing caveats where appropriate
  • correcting title descriptions or initiating title rectification
  • negotiating co-ownership exits or forced sales
  • applying for declarations, injunctions or orders through QLD courts or tribunals

If your dispute stems from a related party transfer, conveyancing process, or shared development structure, we’ll also draw on our specialist experience in those areas.

Learn more about Caveats, Related Party Transfers, Easements, or Compulsory Acquisitions if your matter involves those specific property issues.

What are my rights if I own property jointly with someone I no longer want to co-own with?
If you co-own property as tenants in common or joint tenants, you may be entitled to seek a court-ordered sale or buyout. We can help negotiate a resolution or initiate proceedings if needed.
Can I fix an error on my title or lot boundary?
Yes. If there’s a mistake on your registered title, such as a wrong lot number, easement, or co-owner detail, we can assist with the necessary application or legal rectification process.
What if my neighbour is encroaching on my land?
You may be entitled to seek removal, compensation, or a boundary adjustment order, depending on the circumstances. Legal advice should be obtained early to avoid escalation.
Can a buyer or seller pull out of a contract just before settlement?
Only in limited circumstances. If you’ve been affected by a party refusing to settle or defaulting on contractual terms, we can help assess your rights and seek compensation or enforcement.
