About Gregory
Gregory LeClerc built his academic foundation in the sciences before turning to law. He earned a B.A. in Biology from the University of Maine at Orono in 2010. He then studied real estate at Georgetown University, completing an M.S. in 2012. He returned to Maine for legal training and graduated from the University of Maine School of Law in 2016, where his coursework included criminal law, negotiation, and alternative dispute resolution.
After law school LeClerc began practicing in Maine. He is admitted to the Maine bar and has been active in local legal organizations since 2017. He holds membership in the Maine Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, joining that group the same year. Those memberships place him in the company of defense practitioners who handle a range of criminal matters across the state.
LeClerc’s training at Maine Law emphasized courtroom and negotiation skills. His studies in criminal law were paired with practical coursework in negotiation and alternative dispute resolution, a combination that informs how he approaches cases. The earlier science background gives him an analytical frame that he applies when reviewing evidence and preparing legal strategies.
His graduate work at Georgetown in real estate provides a secondary strand to his expertise. That program covered the technical and transactional elements of property law and finance. While his practice centers on criminal defense, the real estate degree allows him to handle cases or legal questions that touch on property issues when they arise, particularly where facts or evidence intersect with land use or title matters.
Colleagues describe LeClerc as a lawyer who balances preparation and adaptability. He prepares detailed case plans and also adapts when new facts emerge. Clients see a methodical approach to investigation, plea analysis, and courtroom presentation. In professional settings he participates in continuing education and peer discussions, including those organized by the criminal defense association.
LeClerc practices at 1820 Law in Maine. He represents individuals in criminal matters and addresses legal problems where criminal charges and related civil issues overlap. He maintains his professional memberships and continues to practice in Maine, where he handles criminal defense and related legal work.
