What We Do

At Kelly & Chapman, we can help you in many areas of law whether you are buying or selling a home, business, or wanting to write a will, for example.

We Can Provide Legal Assistance
in the Following Areas:

Powers of Attorney

Powers of attorney are legal documents that let you choose someone who can make decisions for you. Powers of attorney give you choice and control.

Civil and Commercial Litigation

Very few people want to be involved in court proceedings. They can be protracted, stressful, costly and the outcome is not always predictable.

Criminal Law

It is an unfortunate fact of life that ordinary, decent and generally law-abiding people occasionally fall foul of the law. 

VCAT

Many minor and specialised disputes are dealt with at the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT).

Wills & Probate

Wills & Probate focuses on managing a person’s estate after death, including validating wills, distributing assets, settling debts, and handling inheritance matters to ensure the deceased’s wishes are carried out legally.

Property Law

Property Law deals with the ownership, use, transfer, and protection of real estate and property rights, including buying, selling, leasing, and resolving property disputes.

Notary Public

If you’re sending legal documents overseas, many foreign governments, courts, and institutions will only accept them if they’ve been notarised by an appointed Notary Public.

    Laiany and the whole team did a great job for us when we sold our property in Ormond. We were very happy indeed with the work they did and recommend them highly. Tony

    My experience with Susan @ Kelly & Chapman lawyers was seamless. Susan guided me through every part of the process ensuring I was kept informed and understood what the 'next steps' would be. I received very clear communications with instructions on what I needed to do where/when, making it all very easy for me to follow and comply. All-in-all this was a very positive experience for me - thanks to Susan and I would definitely look to utilise her services again if I needed them. I highly recommend you try them out!
