Dan Simpson, Principal Solicitor of Redmond Hale Simpson Solicitors and Barristers, is celebrating 50 years of legal practice in 2025. The milestone was marked by the NSW Law Society at a celebration on September 8, 2025.
Admitted as a solicitor by the Supreme Court of NSW in March 1976, Dan has practiced in the St George area of Sydney for his entire career. He completed a Bachelor of Laws at Sydney University Law School.
“Growing up in Tamworth, Inverell and Parkes, I was encouraged by my high school English teacher to pursue a career in the law. I will always be grateful for that advice and the opportunities it has afforded me.”
At the start of his career, Dan focussed on criminal law and litigation in court, and now primarily practices in the areas of succession, estate planning and conveyancing. Some of his clients from his earlier days practicing in Hurstville still remain clients to this day. After establishing his own practice, Dan Simpson and Associates, in Kogarah, Dan merged his firm to form Redmond Hale Simpson in 2005. The firm relocated to Brighton-le-Sands in 2019.
Dan is a life member of the St George and Sutherland Law Society, and served as president from 1988-1989.
“Our local law society continues to support the legal profession locally and promote lawyers to work together collaboratively for the best results for our clients.”
After five decades in practice, Dan continues to serve clients from first home buyers through to executors of estates, alongside the experienced team at Redmond Hale Simpson.
Outside of the law, Dan enjoys golf, music, reading, and rugby league. He lives in Oatley with his family. He has served as an Alderman on Hurstville City Council is committed to community service, providing pro bono legal assistance to the Cancer Council and Oatley Lions Club.
