Resolving Legal Disputes Over Land and Property
At Scherini Lawyers, we assist clients across Melbourne in navigating complex real property and equitable land disputes. These matters often involve competing interests, unclear ownership, trust claims, or property held in another’s name. When legal title doesn’t reflect the true position, equity may provide a remedy.
We help claimants and property owners understand their rights, whether under common law or equitable doctrines. If you believe you have a rightful interest in land or property, or someone is wrongly asserting ownership over yours, our team provides tailored legal advice and robust representation.
