about us
The team at Drew Gleeson Legal has been providing high quality legal advice for the people of Portland and south west Victoria for well over 25 years.
The founding of Drew Gleeson Legal in 2007 by Directors Paul Drew, Colin Gleeson, Jacinta Johnson and Brooke Matters was brought about by the common goal of each of the Directors to provide a quality local legal service to the people of Portland and the surrounding district. Paul, Colin, Jacinta and Brooke had previously worked together for many years and their complementary skills and personalities have formed a strong foundation for the legal team at Drew Gleeson Legal.
Despite its growth, Drew Gleeson Legal remains a team of local people, with a local focus who are committed to providing the best possible service. Each advisor brings experience and dedication in their respective fields of law.
Drew Gleeson provides professional, practical and direct legal advice while understanding the individual needs of each client.
