Danielle is currently studying a Bachelor of Laws (Honours) at the Queensland University of Technology.
When first joining Attwood Marshall Lawyers, Danielle took on the role of administration assistant to support the firm’s lawyers and help provide consistent and exceptional services to our clients. It didn't take long for Danielle to take on more responsibilities and has now moved into a Paralegal position, supporting our litigation teams.

Danielle completed a law and public policy internship at the Legal Resources Centre in Cape Town, South Africa, in 2019 where she worked closely with solicitors on matters relating to socio-economic rights violations.

After returning to Australia to continue her studies, she took a position in August 2021 at a conveyancing law firm on the Gold Coast acting as a law clerk. There, she built up considerable experience liaising with clients, lenders, and real estate agents, conducting property searches, as well as arranging settlements via PEXA.

Danielle is understanding and empathetic, which are traits that put her in good stead when interacting with clients who are often going through a difficult time.

Her Gold Coast roots also have an international flavour – she was born in Manila, the Philippines, and lived in Beijing, China for eight years when she was a teenager. Danielle feels that these lengthy stints overseas and being exposed to different cultures has given her a better understanding of the world and the people around her.

She joined Attwood Marshall Lawyers to gain more practical experience in the legal industry ahead of the completion of her law degree, which is slated for June 2024. She enjoys learning from the lawyers she supports daily, and her drive for growth is an asset to the firm’s administration team.
