Conveyancing Act 1919 (NSW)

An absolute assignment of any debt or legal chose in action must be:
- Executed in writing and signed by the assignor.
- Accompanied by express written notice given to the debtor, trustee, or relevant party from whom the assignor is entitled to claim.
The assignment will be deemed effectual in law, allowing for:
- Transfer of the legal right from the date of notice.
- Legal and other remedies associated with the debt or chose in action.
- Power to give a valid discharge without needing the assignor's agreement.
However, if the debtor or relevant party has notice that the assignment is disputed or subject to conflicting claims:
- They may call on involved parties to interplead regarding the claims.
- Alternatively, they may pay the amount into court according to relevant Acts for trustee relief.
