Property litigation

Matthew Bransgrove, is the co-author of the Essential Guide to Mortgage Law in NSW, and heads up our property litigation departments. His extensive experience in property litigation in NSW goes back 20 years. By virtue of our extensive involvement in mortgage enforcement over the last 10 years Bransgroves acted in many of the leading cases in relation to property law. All our partners contribute extensively to the academic literature on property law through our College of Law papers and our article in the Law Society Journal.

Whatever your property related dispute, Bransgroves will be able to recognize the crux of the dispute and dig up a strategy and legal precedent to suit your position. Our deep familiarity with the Equity Division of the Supreme Court, and the black letter law enable us to achieve outcomes for our client, in most cases through the use of interlocutory applications that effectively dispose of the dispute, avoiding the need for a full-blown trial.
