Today I’m joined by Danielle Snell, an entrepreneurial lawyer and law firm founder who is doing things differently in the legal world.


Danielle isn’t your typical lawyer. With 15 years of experience in top and mid-tier private practice, she took a bold leap to create her own dynamic law firm, Elit Lawyers by McGirr & Snell, while pregnant. Her firm specialises in e-litigation and is redefining the traditional law firm model with transparency and technology at its core.


Danielle’s expertise spans high-stakes commercial litigation, defamation, and insurance disputes. She’s a fierce advocate for women’s rights, often representing women in sexual harassment cases brought to the Australian Human Rights Commission and Federal Court.


But her story goes beyond legal victories. Danielle is a multi-faceted powerhouse - a mother, wife, friend, and entrepreneur - proving you can have it all while challenging norms. She’s worked on high-profile cases, advising directors, public figures, and professionals, and has a passion for empowering clients through meaningful, forward-thinking legal services.


Some themes in this conversation include:


  • Danielle’s journey from private practice to launching her own entrepreneurial law firm
  • How she’s disrupting traditional legal services through innovation and e-litigation
  • The challenges and triumphs of building a business while balancing motherhood
  • Her dedication to women’s rights and creating change in the legal profession


This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to break barriers, lead authentically or understand the power of resilience in entrepreneurship.
