Since founding Marrawah Law in 2013, Leah’s philosophy of doing law differently has driven the firm’s growth into one of the largest Indigenous-owned and operated law firms in Australia.

She remains a passionate advocate for the growth of the Indigenous business sector, women in business, and a more collaborative approach to commercial legal practice that establishes win-win outcomes for all stakeholders.
