Episode 4: From Quiet Confidence to Legal Clarity – Gayathri Singh’s Journey as an Introverted Lawyer and Founder
🎙️ Episode Summary:
Gayathri Singh is a lawyer and the founder of New Wave Legal, a law firm created to break the mould of traditional legal practice. With a fixed-fee model designed to offer transparent and accessible legal support, Gayathri is on a mission to make quality legal advice available to more people—especially small business owners.
After a decade in private practice, she saw how often people were priced out of the support they needed. Her response? Create a firm where legal help is approachable, affordable, and human.
As an introvert in a competitive industry, Gayathri once questioned if she had what it took. But rather than trying to become someone she wasn’t, she leaned into her natural strengths—deep listening, empathy, analytical thinking, and genuine connection. That choice has shaped her life and business, and now she helps others do the same.
In this episode, she shares her journey from silent strength to confident leadership, her legal tips for women in business, and how building a business your way can be your greatest advantage.
💡 What You'll Learn:
- Why Gayathri left private practice to build a law firm on her own terms
- How introversion became her greatest business strength
- Her approach to boundaries, mindfulness, and being present while raising a family and running a business
How small communities like Women With Altitude helped her grow her network the introvert-friendly way
Legal tips every woman in business should know (even if you hate legal stuff!)
✅ Actionable Legal Tips for Business Owners:
- Choose the Right Structure: Sole trader, company, or partnership? Each has implications for tax, liability, and growth.
- Use Clear Contracts: Never rely on handshakes—written agreements are essential for protection.
- Protect Your Brand: Register your business name, trademarks, and IP early.
Know Your Obligations: Employment laws, consumer rights, and privacy compliance matter more than you think.
Get Legal Advice Early: Waiting can be costly. A small legal check-up early can save big headaches later.
