A senior lawyer, genuinely in your corner.
Spencer Alexander Lawyers was built around a single idea: that clients deserve direct access to an experienced lawyer who treats their matter as if it were his own. Meet the people behind the firm, and the standard it is built on.
The principal
Meet Spencer Alexander.
Spencer Alexander is a Melbourne lawyer who believes good advice begins with listening. For more than a decade he has sat across the table from people on some of the hardest days of their lives, and what they tend to remember afterwards is not just the law, but the feeling of being genuinely heard and looked after — and of knowing that someone fought as hard as their case could be fought, gave them every chance of success, and was, from first call to last, completely on their side.
He was drawn to the law for a simple reason: he wanted to help people through the moments that feel overwhelming. A loss in the family. The end of a relationship. A business under real pressure. Lifting some of that weight off a person's shoulders, and fighting for the best possible outcome for every client, is his core motivation.
His experience runs deep. Over more than ten years he has practised across Commercial Law, Family Law and Wills and Estates, both internationally and throughout the private sector here at home. It is a breadth of perspective and experience that is rare in a boutique firm, and it shows in advice that is commercially grounded, legally rigorous and delivered in plain language.
He started Spencer Alexander Lawyers because he had seen too many people passed between junior staff and left in the dark about their own matter. Here it is different. You deal with him directly, from the first phone call through to the last, and your matter is given the seniority, discretion and genuine care it deserves.
Away from the desk he is a Melburnian through and through. The values he was raised on, honesty, loyalty and looking after the people who rely on you, are the same ones he brings to every client he acts for.
Legal excellence is the core value of his practice.
