About Justin

Justin Levido, a respected lawyer with an extensive career spanning over three decades, has built a formidable reputation in Port Macquarie and the surrounding regions. Originally from Cessnock in the Hunter Valley, Justin transitioned from a career in town planning to law, earning his Bachelor of Legal Studies from Macquarie University in 1986. His legal journey in Port Macquarie began in earnest in 1987, culminating in partnership with a local firm by 1991. Seeking to deepen his legal acumen, Justin pursued and completed a Master of Laws in Environmental and Local Government Law from Macquarie University in 1997. In 2018, drawing on his vast experience, he founded Levido Law + Property, a firm dedicated to providing clients with expert advice and personalised service across commercial, small business, property, elder law, and deceased estates areas. Justin's previous roles include Managing Partner at Donovan Oates Hannaford Law + Property, where he served for over a decade, and lawyer positions at other well-regarded firms, including Stacks The Law Firm and Cleaves, Cleaves & Mallik Lawyers. Beyond his legal practice, Justin has shown a strong commitment to his community. He has served as Past President of the Mid North Coast Regional Law Society and held leadership roles in various community organisations such as the Rotary Club of Port Macquarie Sunrise and the Apex Club of Port Macquarie Inc. His civic engagement has further extended to local governance, where he contributed as a councillor for the Port Macquarie-Hastings Council for nearly eight years. Justin's career is distinguished by his dedication to excellence in legal practice and community service, making him a trusted advisor and an integral part of the Port Macquarie legal landscape.
