about Sebastian

Sebastian Renato is the Managing Principal of Macpherson Kelley’s Dandenong office.

Sebastian was drawn to property law because of its tangible impact on people, businesses and communities. Not only is it one of the oldest areas of law, but it’s also one that almost everyone will encounter at some point in their life.

Understanding that legal services are just one part of the broader property process, Sebastian provides pragmatic and commercially focused legal advice that enables clients to make informed decisions when buying, selling, developing or leasing.

From starting his legal career in a small law firm in central Victoria to working at a top-tier firm, Sebastian has developed extensive experience across a diverse range of property transactions. His practice spans complex acquisitions and disposals, commercial and industrial developments, leasing, infrastructure projects and renewable energy developments. He is particularly experienced in managing the legal complexities of large-scale transactions and has advised on deals involving office assets valued up to $250 million and industrial development land sales exceeding $120 million.

With deep experience across a broad range of property transactions, Sebastian combines strong technical expertise with a practical understanding of the market to deliver successful commercial outcomes for his clients.

“The relationships we build are what makes my job so satisfying. From seeing a client buy their first home, or helping a client develop a property that provides income for their family and future generations, right through to advising on all stages of a major commercial, industrial or residential development projects.”
