Who we are

Counsel for business owners, directors and professionals.

We work with clients whose matters require strategic thinking, technical depth, and discretion.

Pentana Stanton Lawyers was established in 2014 by Penny LaGreca. The firm practises in two areas, commercial law and family law, from offices in the Melbourne CBD and Dandenong, and acts for clients across Victoria.

Our commercial practice, led by Jesse LaGreca, acts for business owners, directors and companies in commercial litigation, shareholder and partnership disputes, director duties, business sales and acquisitions, contract disputes and corporate insolvency.

Our family practice, led by Penny LaGreca, advises on separations involving businesses, trusts and significant assets, including property settlements, binding financial agreements, complex parenting matters and estate litigation.

Some matters involve both. When a separation involves a company, a trust or a family business, having commercial and family lawyers in the same firm means the business questions and the family law questions are advised on together.

Our practice areas

What we advise on.

How we work

A considered approach to complex matters.

Strategic from the outset

We start with the outcome. Every matter is approached with a clear view of what success looks like and the most direct path to get there.

Technical depth

Complex matters require technical fluency. Our work is grounded in legislation, current authority, and a deep understanding of how courts actually decide these cases.

Discretion and judgement

Sensitive matters require sound judgement. We work quietly, manage information carefully, and make decisions that protect our clients' interests beyond the immediate dispute.

Leadership

Led by the firm's principals.
