Advice preparation

All guides
Prepare

If available, keep the notice or award reference, dates received, plot identifiers, property papers and compensation communications. These are optional starting points.

Step 1

Make a timeline from the first notice to the latest response, marking which documents you actually hold.

Step 2

Ask which procedure applies, what each notice requires, which dates matter and where any disagreement should be raised.

Step 3

Discuss these notes with an advocate of your choice, or open NALSA’s legal-aid information to ask about professional assistance. The service determines eligibility and representation.

What to check

The lawyer can assess the papers and dates instead of relying on an assumed compensation formula.

If you need help

If a plot reference or receipt date differs between papers, list the difference and ask how to verify it.
