A process tool is not a lawyer.

The site can make information easier to navigate. It cannot replace advice on the facts and contract in front of you.

Do not use the current site to issue or serve a payment claim, decide to let a deadline pass, or substitute for advice on a disputed or high-value matter.

Not legal advice or representation

TradeDue’s website content, routing preview, state guides and fictional sample are general information and product demonstrations. They are not legal advice and do not create a lawyer–client, adviser–client, fiduciary or representative relationship.

No statement on the site is a determination that you are entitled to make a claim, that another party is liable, or that any document will be legally effective.

No claim-preparation service yet

TradeDue is in development. The site does not currently accept payment, claim instructions or supporting documents, and it does not generate, review, sign, issue or serve payment claims. The sample document is intentionally incomplete and must not be copied or used.

The claim check is product routing only

The preview uses a small set of categorical answers to indicate whether a future standard workflow might be relevant or whether the situation appears to require review. It does not read your contract, test evidence, verify identities, interpret every exclusion or assess limitation periods.

A “standard” preview result is not legal eligibility, compliance or approval.

State guides are summaries

Security-of-payment regimes are different across Australia and can turn on commencement dates, transitional rules, residential work, contract type, claimant and respondent identity, required wording, supporting documents and other exceptions.

Public guides simplify those regimes and may not address your circumstances. Always check the stated review date, current legislation and the linked official source.

Deadlines, due dates and service

The site does not provide a binding deadline calculator. Contract terms and legislation can affect reference dates, claim timing, payment due dates, response periods and adjudication windows. Service can also fail if the wrong person, address or method is used.

Keep independent proof of what was sent, the complete document, recipient, address or account, method, date and time. Do not rely on a web preview as evidence of service.

When specialist help is sensible

Consider prompt legal or adjudication-practitioner advice if the jurisdiction is uncertain, a homeowner or consumer is involved, the contract is terminated, multiple contracts or parties are involved, insolvency is possible, the claim is final or includes retention, the same work has been claimed before, a payment schedule or dispute has arrived, court or adjudication steps have started, or a deadline may be close.
