Client reviews
Property law clients,
in their own words.
Been dealing with Dinesh, Pallavee and his staff for over 10 years, more than 20 properties settled through them. The amount of expertise Joshi Lawyers has is next to none… every question answered and every transaction handled in the most professional way.
Ankur AnandProperty investor · Google review, 2018 Made a complex process simple. I received pro-active phone calls and emails letting me know about timeframes and deadlines… Everything was completed remotely and so easy, as well as regular communication which far exceeded my expectations.
Dhaval PatelHome buyer · Google review, 2020 I’ve used Joshi Lawyers a few times now and have always had a good experience with them. The communication and service from their team throughout the entire process from start to finish is great, and they are cost-effective, too.
Ian HProperty and conveyancing client · Google review, 2019 We bought our first commercial property and Dinesh looked after our file… sent us all information three days prior with all calculations, and kept us posted with all changes on the settlement date. A hassle-free experience.
Ravneet KaurCommercial property buyer · Google review, 2020 The process went smooth with no stress, communication was easy and we were kept informed throughout the process. We can’t recommend them enough and we will definitely be using their services for future settlements.
Dureka HomesBuilder · Google review, 2019 I am with them for the past 5 years for several land purchases. In all instances they have provided great service to me… taking ownership and providing extra-mile service.

Is this you?
When people come to us about selling.
Each of these is a good reason to call, and none of them is too early.
- Your agent has asked for the contract and section 32 by Friday.
- You are selling a commercial property with tenants and a GST question.
- You are a developer selling lots before the plan of subdivision is registered.
- A buyer has threatened to end the contract over the vendor statement.
How we help
A vendor statement is only finished when nothing is missing.
The Sale of Land Act sets out what a vendor statement must contain. If something required is missing or wrong, a buyer may be able to end the contract before settlement. That is why we gather the searches, certificates and building records ourselves and check each one against the requirements.
Our contracts carry special conditions written for the property and the sale, whether it is a family home, a tenanted shop, or a staged off-the-plan release.
What we do
- Residential, commercial and off-the-plan contracts of sale
- Section 32 vendor statements with every required search and certificate
- Special conditions for tenancies, GST, early release and access
- Off-the-plan disclosure and deposit provisions
- Updates when information changes before the property sells
- Advice if a buyer raises the vendor statement after signing
What happens first
Your first week with us.
A matter should feel different from the first call. This is what you can expect before anything is signed or sent.
The first call: the property and the timetable
What you are selling or developing, who else is involved, and the dates the agent, lender or council are working to.
In writing: the scope and the fee
Conveyancing is a fixed fee, quoted before you engage us. Development and commercial property work is scoped in writing before it starts.
The documents: built from the right searches
We order the title, planning and authority certificates ourselves, and tell you if anything in them needs attention before the property goes to market.
From then on: one lawyer, no chasing
The same lawyer sees the matter through to settlement. You are told the settlement figures before the day, not after.
Your team
Who you will deal with.
Matters are run by the people below, not handed down.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
If your question is not here, it is a good reason for the free call.
How long does a section 32 take to prepare?
It depends mostly on how quickly councils and authorities return their certificates. Contact us when you appoint the agent, so the searches can be ordered straight away.
Do you prepare contracts for agents?
Yes. Many agents send us their vendors’ contracts and section 32s, and we keep them informed as each is ready.
What does it cost?
Conveyancing is a fixed fee, quoted before you engage us. Development, SMSF and commercial property work is handled by senior lawyers and scoped in writing before it starts, so you know what you are committing to and what you will get for it.
