Gregory Manor, the original home of Hodgson lawyers.
The firm was previously known as Richard Hoare and Associates and Hickey Olsen and Associates and in 2003 was purchased by Anthony (Tony) Hodgson. Tony renamed the firm Hodgson lawyers and in 2004 John O’Byrne was engaged as the managing Solicitor. In 2008 John acquired the business from Tony. To re enforce the stability of the preceding four years under his management John chose to retain the name Hodgson Lawyers. Tony had maintained and still has, his practice at Mount Gravatt, trading as AP Hodgson & Associates. Tony specialises in criminal, family, taxation and commercial law and has remained a loyal consultant with the firm and proven to be a valuable resource.
Hodgson Lawyers has now for over 16 years built the practice and reputation by focusing on providing professional legal advice to our clients in a cost effective and accessible way. Our lawyers are there to help you.
