Practical Help for Property Disagreements

Many property disputes start small but grow quickly when communication breaks down. Mediation offers a way to get things back on track before they spiral into formal legal action. It can help resolve issues like encroachments, easements, land boundaries or informal agreements that were never put in writing.


We explain the law clearly, identify where parties disagree and keep discussions focused on workable outcomes. Mediation is faster, less expensive and more private than court—and it gives both parties more control over the final outcome.


We also help document any agreements reached, so everyone’s protected moving forward. If needed, we can refer the matter to court with everything already prepared, saving you additional time and cost. It’s a collaborative way to sort things out—without turning neighbours into enemies.

Honest Advice, Calm Conversations, Fair Outcomes

No one wants a long legal battle with someone they live next to or share property with. That’s why we offer an approach that puts understanding before escalation. You’ll receive honest, grounded advice and a structured process for working through disagreement.


We don’t take sides—we help both parties feel heard and supported while focusing on resolution. If things can’t be worked out through mediation, we’ll explain your legal options, including how to prepare for court and what outcomes are realistic.


Our goal is to reduce stress and help you move on—with clarity, fairness and as little conflict as possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is property mediation and how does it work?

    Property mediation is a structured, voluntary process where a neutral third party (the mediator) helps two or more people resolve a property-related dispute. It’s commonly used for boundary disagreements, shared access issues, and co-ownership conflicts.


    Each party has a chance to explain their side, and the mediator guides the conversation toward a fair outcome. If an agreement is reached, it can be written up and signed by all parties. Mediation is often quicker, more affordable and less formal than court.

  • Do I have to go to court for a property dispute?

    Not always. Many property disputes can be resolved through negotiation or mediation without involving the court. In fact, some disputes require mediation before a court will even hear the case—especially in neighbourhood or strata matters.


    Trying mediation first can save both time and money, and help preserve relationships. If the dispute can’t be resolved through mediation, court may be necessary—but legal advice can help you prepare.

  • What kinds of property disputes can be mediated?

    Common examples include fencing and boundary disagreements, right-of-way access issues, disputes between neighbours over noise or encroachments, and disagreements between co-owners of a property.


    Mediation is also useful in rural land matters, including water access and easement rights. Essentially, if both parties are open to talking, most disputes involving land or property use can benefit from mediation.

  • Is property mediation legally binding?

    The mediation process itself is not binding—but if both parties reach an agreement, it can be formalised in writing and signed. In some cases, that agreement can be filed with the court to make it legally enforceable.


    Even without court involvement, a written mediation agreement helps avoid future misunderstandings and shows clear intent from both sides.


    It’s important to have a lawyer review or help draft the final terms to ensure they hold up if issues arise later.
