VIC: Water Act Claims and Building Defects in Owners Corporations | LookUpStrata

In this webinar, Phillip Leaman from Tisher Liner FC Law joins Nikki Jovicic from LookUpStrata to discuss the topic of water ingress and building defect claims that affect owners corporations in Victoria.

Phillip explores:
- What does an Owners Corporation do when faced with a water ingress claim?
- Who is liable for claims, and can liability be passed onto others?
- Can the builder or other parties be pursued if the building has been constructed in the last 10 years?
- What is the practical procedure for initiating a claim?

This seminar is helpful for owners corporation managers, lot owners and committees facing water ingress or building defect issues. If you don’t know where to start or are embroiled in a claim and don’t know how to progress the claim, this webinar will assist.

The session also concluded with a Q&A segment.
