If you are an apartment owner or are interested in purchasing an apartment, it is likely you have heard about cladding issues. An apartment with flammable cladding can cause great concern surrounding the cost and work involved to remove and replace it.

Further, there are unfortunate instances where apartments are built haphazardly, resulting in buildings containing minor to major defects. This can be a shock for apartment owners who purchase off-the-plan and expect something representing the artistic impressions provided in the marketing materials and the end result is disappointingly different. Some defects can go beyond cosmetic and affect the structural integrity of the apartment itself.

Taking proceedings to the VCAT can be an intimidating process, however Warlows Legal provide legal representation for apartment owners and take the stress-work out of the dispute process. We will ensure you engage the right expert and will prepare a thorough Points of Claim. Where there are multiple affected apartment owners in the same building, we have developed a system where we can act for all the owners in a joint proceeding at a reduced individual cost.
