Dispute Resolution
Intervention (DRI)

Bodies Corporate in Queensland are governed by the Body Corporate and Community Management Act 1997 (Qld) (BCCMA) and associated regulation modules. The BCCMA provides for statutory dispute resolution as administered by the Body Corporate Commissioner Office, consisting of conciliation, adjudication and specialist forms of those models.
​
The Mediate Now Dispute Resolution processes, known as Dispute Resolution Intervention or DRI provide a means of resolving simple or complicated disputes in relation to matters that fall within the jurisdiction of the BCCMA as well as outside of it.

How DRI works
&
​Who we work with

Our mediation processes involve one or more of the following mediation strategies, which are utilised at applicable moments during the mediation session:
  • Facilitative
  • Therapeutic
  • Transformative
  • Speciality
  • Technical
​

Examples of matters in which the Meditate Now DRI processes are particularly effective are as follows:


1.
Disputes ​that fall within the BCCMA jurisdiction –
  • Maintenance;
  • By-Laws (eg. animals, vehicles, noise);
  • Nuisances;
  • Lot owner improvements.


2. Disputes where there is no BCCMA jurisdiction
  • Caretaker and management rights;
  • Contractual matters;
  • Neighbour disputes; (eg. dividing fences, trees, nuisances other than s.167 BCCMA);
  • Debts other than BC debts (QCAT, BCCM);
  • Statutory Obligations (non-BCCMA);
  • Common Law breaches; (eg. Defamation, Trespass, damages, economic loss)

Because we are experts in Body Corporate Law, we can provide meaningful facilitation of a dispute resolution outcome that meets the needs of the interests of the parties in a sensitive, practical and holistic manner. 

We work with body corporate committees, caretakers and their legal representatives (as applicable) to reach goals that the parties can move forward in a cost-effective, meaningful and positive way.


The flowchart below illustrates points at which DRI processes can be commenced. The flowchart also maps the DRI process once initiated by the parties.
