Greta Sedl
Greta will happily tell you she fell into property law by accident, and Empire is very glad she did.

Areas of practice
- Commercial and retail leasing
- Developments and off-the-plan contracts
- Due diligence, acquisitions and disposals
- Residential and commercial conveyancing
- Manufactured homes and retirement villages
- Licences and related commercial property matters
Her path to law
Greta started at Empire in December 2019 as a settlement clerk and worked her way up to assistant and then file handler, before leaving briefly to deepen her property law experience and returning as a solicitor. Before law she had worked in events, market research, politics and her family business (and rolled more than a few burritos) while studying at QUT, where the media side of her degree first held her interest. Property, and Empire, won out. As she puts it, Empire made her a lawyer she’s proud to be: commercial, client focused, and always up for talking it out.

A bit about Greta
Away from the office Greta plays social dodgeball, never says no to mid-week trivia, and can be found at pilates, buried in a good book, at a live gig, or camping somewhere without phone reception. Loves: potato gems, a cold beer, arts and crafts, and rocks that make you go “wow”. Not a fan of: ground pepper, slow walkers, and cardboard straws.
