Lodging complaints in relation to strata matters can often be time consuming and frustrating. The property law solicitors at Prime Lawyers have sound experience in Strata Title Law and can assist you in the process.

Recovery of Unpaid Levies

Prime Lawyers is experienced in all forms of debt collection, including recovery of unpaid strata levies. Our strata lawyers can act on your behalf in all appropriate jurisdictions. If it is not commercial for a client to recover their debt through legal action we will advise them so. We always act in our client’s best interests and to maintain high standards of customer service. Please read our debt recovery page for further information on our methods of debt collection.
