Conveyancing
Due to the strict social distancing policies in place, property transactions are reduced.
However, there are still people looking to buy and sell property during this period.
We continue to offer our highly competitive conveyancing deals which you can view here.
Court appearances and VCAT matters
Currently, VCAT and the courts are allowing a mixture of either in-person hearings and remote hearings. The type of hearing you will be allocated will depend upon the nature of your matter and the hearing. This means that solicitors and parties can appear via video or telephone conference or in person.
Due to the back-log of cases in VCAT and the courts many directions and interlocutory hearings are being held remotely. To attend the remote hearing by video link the court may require you to do so from your solicitor’s office.
If your hearing or trial is to be held in person, VCAT and the courts require you to:
- wear a mask at all times; and
- socially distance yourself from others attending the court.
