Marianne Marchesi’s firm had a hugely successful 2024–25 financial year. She credits a lot of that success, she says, to how she and the business responded and adapted to certain difficult periods the year prior – without which, such success may not have been possible.

In this episode of The Boutique Lawyer Show, host Jerome Doraisamy welcomes back Legalite founder and managing principal Marianne Marchesi to discuss her evolving views on disrupting the traditional law firm model, how her firm performed in FY24–25, the challenges faced in the prior financial year, how those hardships have led to certain successes, and how she navigated her way out of wanting to throw in the towel as a business owner.

Marchesi also discusses how the firm realigned in such difficult periods, how those experiences have shifted her view on what it means to be a good lawyer and business owner, how she has grown personally and professionally, what other firm owners can learn from her experience, and what excites her moving forward.
