About Us


Gibson Sheat Lawyers is a Wellington regional law firm with over 100 staff and partners, and a broad personal and business client base. We have offices in Masterton, Lower Hutt and Wellington CBD. We are proud to have provided a range of life and business legal services to our region for over 90 years and have a long-standing connection with many local causes and community groups.

Whether you're an individual, small, or large business, or a not-for-profit organisation, you'll find the expertise that you need to help you get to the solution that you want.

We're not a huge firm, but we think that's an advantage. We are locals who take an interest in our clients and we take your business personally.

Our clients tell us that they like the fact we're happy to meet with them over coffee for a chat without being formally engaged. They say we listen and provide practical recommendations to help them achieve their objectives.

If this sounds like you and you're looking for lawyers who will take the initiative and who are:

  • Quickly onto the issues,
  • Creative in their problem solving,
  • Clear in their advice,
  • Down to earth,
  • Friendly, sensitive, and approachable,
  • Accurate, but not retentive,

then Gibson Sheat is the right firm for you.

If you choose to work with us, you can expect us to listen to what you want, make a call, and find answers that work for you‚ in your life and your business, because that's the Gibson Sheat way.
