Danielle Hammond
A Senior Solicitor focused on personal legal services — wills, trusts, estate administration and the careful, often emotional work of acting for individuals and families.
Danielle brings a calm, methodical approach to matters that often arrive when life is at its most difficult. She is known for being explicit about timelines, costs and what's involved at every stage.
Danielle's practice sits at the personal end of the firm — the wills, the estates, the trusts that hold a family's assets together. She approaches this work with patience and precision: clients often comment that she's the first person who has actually explained, in plain language, what the options are.
She handles probate and letters of administration through to disputed estate claims, and is comfortable with the difficult conversations that come with elder law work — capacity assessments, rest home subsidies, EPOAs that need updating.
Outside of personal law, Danielle supports the firm's residential conveyancing work, particularly for clients who want to deal with one consistent lawyer across both their home and their estate plan.
