The Role of the NSW Supreme Court in Strata Law
The Supreme Court addresses strata disputes that exceed NCAT’s jurisdiction, such as major building defect claims or those with significant financial consequences for an owners corporation or lot owner.
It also acts as a primary channel for appeals from NCAT on legal questions regarding strata law.
Some complex strata disputes may be directly initiated in the Supreme Court, involving intricate legal issues and significant consequences for the strata scheme.
Key Legislation Governing Strata Schemes
The operation and management of NSW strata schemes are governed by two key laws.
The Strata Schemes Management Act 2015 (NSW) outlines duties and powers for owners corporations and managers, covering maintenance, financial management, by-laws, and dispute resolution.
The Strata Schemes Development Act 2015 (NSW) relates to strata plan creation and alterations.
For disputes involving complex issues or appeals, the NSW Supreme Court offers legal resolution.

Frequently Asked Questions about NSW Supreme Court Strata Law
When might a strata dispute need to go to the NSW Supreme Court?
A strata dispute may need to proceed to the NSW Supreme Court if it involves complex questions of strata law, exceeds the monetary or jurisdictional limits of the NCAT, or involves an appeal against an NCAT decision on a point of law. Such legal proceedings are typically reserved for significant matters where substantial rights or financial implications are at stake for a lot owner or an owners corporation. The NSW Supreme Court provides a crucial venue for resolving these high-stakes strata disputes in New South Wales.
What kind of strata matters does the NSW Supreme Court handle?
The NSW Supreme Court handles a range of complex strata disputes and legal matters that are beyond the scope of other tribunals. These include significant building defect claims, disputes over an owners corporation’s duty to maintain and repair common property under section 106 of the Strata Schemes Management Act 2015 (NSW), complex by-law interpretation and enforcement issues, challenges to strata scheme management, and appeals from NCAT decisions. The court provides legal advice and makes binding determinations on these intricate strata law issues.
Can I appeal an NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal decision to the NSW Supreme Court?
Yes, decisions made by the NCAT in strata disputes can potentially be appealed to the NSW Supreme Court, primarily on questions of law. If you believe the Tribunal made an error in applying strata law, an appeal allows for a review of that legal matter by a higher court. PBL Law Group has experience in handling such appeals and can provide the necessary legal advice and representation for these Supreme Court proceedings.
What is the Owners Corporation's duty to maintain and repair common property?
Under section 106 of the Strata Schemes Management Act 2015 (NSW), an Owners Corporation has a strict statutory duty to properly maintain and keep in a state of good and serviceable repair the common property within the strata scheme. This obligation is a frequent source of strata disputes, particularly when lot owners believe the owners corporation has failed in its responsibility, leading to damage or loss. Legal advice is often sought to clarify the extent of this duty and to resolve conflicts regarding the maintenance and repair of common property.
How does PBL Law Group approach strata disputes in the Supreme Court?
PBL Law Group approaches strata disputes in the NSW Supreme Court with a strategic and client-focused methodology, commencing with a thorough case assessment to understand the specifics of the dispute and the client’s objectives. We then develop a tailored legal strategy, meticulously prepare all necessary court documentation for the legal proceedings, and provide skilled representation in hearings, mediation, and negotiations. Our aim is always to achieve the best possible outcome for our clients, whether they are a lot owner or an owners corporation, by offering clear legal advice throughout the process.
What experience does PBL Law Group have in the NSW Supreme Court?
PBL Law Group has a proven track record of successfully representing clients and winning cases in the NSW Supreme Court and the NSW Court of Appeal, drawing upon more than 50 years of combined legal experience in strata law. Our team includes specialist strata lawyers who have acted in leading strata dispute cases, demonstrating our capability in handling complex Supreme Court proceedings. This experience ensures our clients receive expert legal advice and robust representation for their strata and community title matters.
What is the Strata Schemes Management Act 2015?
The Strata Schemes Management Act 2015 (NSW) is the primary piece of legislation that governs the management and operation of strata schemes in New South Wales. This Act outlines the rights and responsibilities of key parties such as the owners corporation, lot owners, and the strata committee, covering aspects like the maintenance of common property, financial management, by-law creation and enforcement, and dispute resolution processes. Understanding this Act is crucial for anyone involved in a strata scheme or facing a strata dispute.
Can PBL Law Group help draft or enforce strata by-laws?
Yes, PBL Law Group can assist with all aspects of strata by-laws, including drafting new by-laws, reviewing and amending existing ones, and providing legal advice on their interpretation and enforcement for a strata scheme. Our strata lawyers are experienced in handling complex by-law disputes that may require resolution in the NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal (NCAT) or, in more complex cases, the NSW Supreme Court. We ensure by-laws are clear, enforceable, and compliant with NSW strata law.
