You should notify us as soon as you become aware that a principal practitioner of a sole law practice, or sole legal director of an incorporated legal practice, has passed away or has become incapacitated so that we can ensure the affairs of the relevant law practice are properly attended to. Please email lsbc_investigations@lsbc.vic.gov.au and address your communication to the Lawyer for External Interventions. |
Requests for legal records (including wills, deeds and certificates of title)
If you are looking for a safe custody document held by a law practice that no longer exists, we may be able to help you find it. This includes wills, deeds, files, powers of attorney and certificates of title.
Complete our safe custody document form and we'll search our records and help you find the document or provide information we hold on where it’s located. If we can, we will supply you with the name of the law firm that may have the documents. Alternatively, you can email records@lsbc.vic.gov.au with your request.
