About Us

Canberra's oldest law firm . . .

When Norm Snedden, Allan Hall and John Gallop commenced their legal practice in 1960 in small offices in East Row in Civic, they practised commercial and business law, handled land transactions, and represented clients in the various courts and tribunals in Canberra.

They established a culture of hard work, camaraderie, and professionalism, which is the cornerstone of Snedden Hall & Gallop today. The firm is the Territory’s oldest law firm; a firm that is second to none in its ability to offer one-on-one client and lawyer relationships without the complex structures often encountered when dealing with larger firms.

Today, Richard Faulks, Dennis Martin, Bill Andrews and Gerald Santucci, the current directors of Snedden Hall & Gallop Pty Limited, maintain the tradition of excellence established in those early days and lead a highly experienced team of professionals who provide practical and value-for-money legal solutions for organisations and people in the Canberra region.

Snedden Hall & Gallop is also a member of Meritas, which is a global network of lawyers, thus giving its clients access to the expertise of over 6,500 lawyers in 170 firms worldwide.
