The wonderful team at Priala Legal recently graduated to become PEXA Certified members and the firm’s Principal, Despina Priala, took some time recently to share what this recognition means to the Priala Legal team, for today’s In Conversation with Priala Legal:
What does being PEXA Certified mean to you?
It sets us apart from everyone else who has yet to reach this milestone.
It means, that the team at Priala Legal, have dedicated themselves to not only proactively continuing to be PEXA users on a daily basis, we are also seen as positive role models as a PEXA subscriber and active user for other firms to jump on board and make that change. As a collective, we can make change happen. And be better for it. Change is an evolutionary matter that we should embrace and not discard because it is easier to do so.
Being a small boutique firm to reach this milestone speaks volumes and enhances our credibility in the property world as legal representatives of property players in Qld and NSW.
Describe your journey to certification on PEXA
The journey has not been without opposition, confrontation and an instinctive undesirability for change.
However, at Priala Legal we have always aspired to think ahead, be at the forefront and continue to evolve as and when required. Law Firms need to adapt with technological changes (which have been vast in my 25 years in practice), whilst maintaining the core ethics and values as lawyers that sets us apart from every other profession on the planet.
Resistance was formed within our practice originally more than 18 months ago. However, once we took that leap of faith, that giant step to move forward in our practice, we have never looked back. We enjoy the benefits of using PEXA for property transactions and appreciate the opportunity to educate our clients in utilising PEXA and the benefits for them.
We look forward to PEXA evolving to incorporate other products for our practice such as leases, retirement villages, manufactured home park sale agreements and the like.
We will continue to be an ambassador for PEXA on our journey with PEXA for the future.
