Litigation and dispute resolution lawyers in Melbourne
Local context
Where these matters are heard in Melbourne
Most everyday matters in Melbourne start in the Magistrates' Court of Victoria in William Street, with larger civil claims and serious criminal matters going to the County Court of Victoria and the Supreme Court of Victoria a short walk away. Renting, owners corporation, building and consumer disputes are heard by the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal. Family law matters are filed in the Melbourne registry of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia, and unfair dismissal and general protections applications are made to the Fair Work Commission's Melbourne office rather than to a court.
79 firms with an office in Melbourne publish litigation and dispute resolution work.
