I was very fortunate to have Tina TANG from CMI as my conveyancing solicitor for the recent sale of my property. She demonstrated exceptional professionalism and dedication throughout the entire process — from preparing the contract, exchanging contracts, right through to settlement. What impressed me the most is that even after settlement, she continued to go above and beyond to assist me as the vendor, making sure everything was properly taken care of.
Her diligence, patience, and attention to detail gave me great peace of mind and took away a lot of the stress of selling a property. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and truly supportive conveyancing solicitor. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We had the pleasure of working with Tina as our solicitor for our first home purchase, and we couldn’t have been in better hands. She carefully explained every step of the process, guiding us through what initially felt overwhelming and unfamiliar. Buying off the plan made us particularly cautious, especially when it came to reviewing legal documents. Tina’s meticulous approach put us at ease—she ensured we both clearly understood each aspect, taking the time to highlight and reorganise information to make it more accessible. Her dedication and professionalism made the entire experience far less daunting, and we’re truly grateful for her support.

Frequently Asked Questions Brisbane Lawyers
Both handle standard conveyancing. A property solicitor in Brisbane offers broader expertise for complex matters like body corporate issues, off-the-plan purchases, disputes, or transactions that could lead to litigation.
Residential conveyancing typically ranges from $1,200 to $2,500 plus disbursements. We offer fixed fees for most transactions, so you know the cost upfront before we start.
Standard conveyancing takes 4 to 6 weeks from contract signing to settlement, depending on finance approval, search turnaround, and whether any issues arise. We keep you updated throughout and manage timelines to avoid delays.
Yes. We recommend having contracts reviewed before signing. We identify risks, explain special conditions, and advise whether the terms protect your interests. Pre-signing reviews typically take 1 to 2 business days.
Standard searches include title searches, survey plans, council rates searches, land tax searches, and contaminated land searches. Depending on the property, we may also recommend flood, bushfire, or planning searches. We advise which searches are appropriate for your purchase.
Queensland transfer duty is calculated on a sliding scale based on purchase price. First home buyers may qualify for concessions or exemptions. We explain your duty obligations during contract review.
Queensland has a 5-business-day cooling-off period for residential contracts. Buyers who withdraw may have up to 0.25% of the purchase price deducted from their deposit. The cooling-off period may be waived or shortened in writing. Buyers should obtain legal advice before doing so, as waiving the cooling-off period removes an important protection.
