The OMB Law Board

Body corporate bylaws cover everything from parking and pets to renovations and noise. But what actually happens when someone ignores them?

In this episode, Simon Bennett sits down with Alexander Wood, a solicitor specialising in body corporate and litigation, to break down the full enforcement process in plain English.

Alex explains what a contravention notice is and why ignoring one is a legal offence, how disputes escalate through the Commissioner's office or the Magistrates Court, and why in the most serious cases, non-compliance can ultimately result in contempt of court and a custodial sentence.

If you live in, own, or manage a body corporate property in Queensland, this episode is essential listening.
