Who you going to Call? Disputes with Neighbours

Disputes with your neighbours can be very stressful, can be over many different things and last a life time.

Many people have had to sell or move on to avoid the ongoing conflict.

Disputes are generally not police matters but can quickly become one when a criminal offence has occurred.

If the matter is happening now and persons are in imminent danger please call Tripe zero (000).

If there is no imminent danger please call Policelink on 131 444.

There are many things that can cause neighbourhood disputes.

Disagreements over trees, buildings, fences, boundaries, pools, smells, parking drainage and many more.

So what do you do, who do you call?
