Welcome to Main Street Legal, a well-established and successful firm of Upper Hutt lawyers located at 66 Main Street. Since our inception in 1992 by John Gwilliam, we have been providing comprehensive legal services with expertise in Litigation, Trusts, Family, and Criminal work. In 2009, we incorporated as John Gwilliam & Co Limited, and in 2011, Fiona Butland joined as a Director and Partner. In August 2013, we rebranded as Main Street Legal, reflecting our commitment to serving the local community.

As your local lawyers, our primary mission is to make legal services easily accessible to all members of the community. To achieve this, we host a free weekly legal advice clinic every Wednesday afternoon from 12:30 pm to 2:00 pm. We also undertake legal aid work to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to seek professional legal assistance.

At Main Street Legal, we strive to demystify the law and lawyers, offering advice and guidance on the issues troubling our clients. We empower individuals by providing them with the knowledge to help themselves or the option to seek our professional assistance if desired.

Our team is well-versed in various areas of law, including Family Law, Criminal Law, Business and Corporate Law, Employment Law, Property Law, and Estate Planning.

In Family Law matters, we are experts in providing sensible solutions and facilitating negotiations regarding property, child custody, and support. With extensive experience in Criminal Law, we can represent you in court for all matters, including defended hearings. Our expertise in business and corporate law allows us to offer guidance on the sale and purchase of businesses, financing, franchising, leasing, and more.

Whether you are an employer or employee, we can advise on employment issues such as unfair dismissals, discrimination, employment agreements, and redundancy. Additionally, we can assist you with any residential or commercial property transactions, including selling, transferring, purchasing, leasing, or providing general property advice.
