How do I dispute a body corporate decision?

Answer
Your options depend on the nature of the dispute: **For decisions made at a general meeting:** You can apply to the Commissioner for Body Corporate and Community Management for adjudication if you believe the decision was made unlawfully — for example, if proper notice was not given or the wrong resolution type was used. **For ongoing issues** (by-law enforcement, maintenance failures, access to records): The Commissioner's office offers a free conciliation service as a first step. If conciliation does not resolve the matter, you can apply for formal adjudication. **Appeals:** Adjudicators' decisions can be appealed to QCAT. In all cases, document your concerns in writing and keep copies of all correspondence before starting any formal process. This article is general information only and not legal advice.
