VerifiedHi, I’m John a solicitor from Melbourne. I may ask you a few questions to narrow the issues you have raised.
With the third step you cam raise a claim in NCAT
The NCAT process is very good to meditate disputes of this type as it forces the parties to come together to discuss the issues involved.
In most cases at mediation the matter will settle.
The matter is Civil.
You will be the applicant and the insurer the respondent.
The important filing document is the points of claim. This document needs to be carefully drafted.
I recommend that you download the application first, complete the same and then upload as required to commence the claim.
The alternative to this is filing an application in the local court, in which case you will be able to recover your legal fees as well in pursuit of the debt amount.
What you need to do is to write the complaint in a chronological order detailing what is the issue and what action you have taken to try and rectify the matter.
The chronological order need to be numbered with points 1, 2, 3, etc. with each point being a separate item.
I recommend that you download the application first, complete the same and then upload as required to commence the claim.
The following link will assist you further.

Would you like to consider this option ?
You have a legal right to protect your interests in this important situation.

I purchased a French Bulldog puppy 6 months ago and signed a
I purchased a French Bulldog puppy 6 months ago and signed a desexing contract stating I would have my pup desexed by 6 months old. Long story short the pup had several health issues that needed to be resolved & 2 vets recommended I delay they pups desexing until after her first heat. She is now 8 months old and the breeder is becoming very disgruntled and pushing me to desex her. I have assured the breeder I do not want to breed the dog, I just want what is best for her health and wellbeing. So my question is do desexing contracts stand up in court, especially if I haven't bred the dog? … read more
