About James

James Moir, the esteemed Principal Lawyer and founder of Moirs Law, has been at the forefront of strata law since 2010, leveraging over three decades of legal expertise. His career is distinguished by an unwavering dedication to the strata sector, earning him recognition as a leading authority in New South Wales. Trusted by strata managers, owners corporations, developers, and various stakeholders in the property and construction industries, James is frequently appointed as an expert to resolve disputes under strata management statements. James's reputation is built upon his ability to deliver practical, straightforward advice while striving to resolve complex claims efficiently, thereby minimising costs and levies for his clients. Moirs Law, which he established in December 2023, was born out of James's commitment to better serve the legal needs of the strata community. Before founding Moirs Law, James served as a Director and Consultant at Madison Marcus, where he enhanced the firm's stature in all areas of strata work. His tenure there was marked by his focus on facilitating defect claims, resolving disputes, and streamlining strata renewals. He also played a crucial role in setting up workable developer by-laws and managing neighbourhood disputes, such as those involving trees and easements. Earlier in his career, as a Partner at Madison Marcus and Special Counsel at Polczynski Lawyers, James consistently demonstrated his strategic vision and deep understanding of strata issues. His work involved advising on strata and neighbourhood disputes, defect claims, and the intricacies of by-laws, all while educating strata managers through seminars. James honed his litigation and advisory skills at JS Mueller & Co, evolving from a property specialist into a formidable force in strata law. His expertise in by-law preparation and litigation, particularly in NCAT, laid the foundation for his later achievements. James's academic journey began at UNSW, where he earned a Bachelor's degree in Arts and Law, followed by formative years at Cranbrook School. Through his enduring commitment to the legal profession, James Moir continues to influence and shape the strata landscape with his exceptional skills and keen insights.
