Law Live ⚖️ with Claire Styles, Founder | C Legal & Co. | Design Your Life | 'Living Your Best Legal Life'

💎 “I didn’t thrive — I barely survived, Cullen. I was a baby lawyer in a very white male-dominated firm.” — Claire Styles

In Episode 52, I sit down with one of the boldest voices in the estate planning game — lawyer, founder, fashionista, and podcast host Claire Styles, as we talk all things legacy: personal, professional, and legal.

👉 From being ghosted by senior partners to becoming a Women in Law award-winner, Claire shares the unfiltered truth of what it really takes to survive — and thrive — in a traditional, male-dominated legal system.

We also dive into:

• 💔 Life after divorce and why she’s baring it all in her new podcast Life After the Big D

• 💼 Why being a sole practitioner can be isolating — and how she’s rewriting the rules

• 💅 How fashion fuels confidence (and yes, OOTDs are good for your mental health)

• 🧠 Why lawyers must stop pretending everything's fine — and start talking about mental health

• 📜 The truth about wills: why you need one yesterday (and how they still get contested)

• ✨ The best career advice she’d give her 20-year-old self: “Trust your intuition — it’s always right.”

  
  

And in true LawLive fashion, we wrap with legacy: how Claire wants to be remembered — and what she wants every young lawyer to hear before they burn out.

Law Live ⚖️ with Paul O'Halloran, Partner | Head of Office | Employment Law Specialist | Dentons | 'Negative Employees, Narcissistic Compassion, Flying Monkeys & Haunted Workplaces'

💎 “Some people have a problem for every solution — those people should be lawfully removed.” — Paul O’Halloran

In this special Tuesday edition of LawLive Ep.51, Cullen Haynes is joined by Paul O’Halloran, Partner at Dentons, employment law specialist, and Head of Office in Melbourne. A former pilot turned legal powerhouse, Paul brings 16 years of experience and a refreshing candour to the conversation.

This episode dives headfirst into the dark side of the workplace:

• How to lawfully remove toxic employees (with a 93% success rate)

• What is narcissistic compassion — and how do you spot it?

• The role of flying monkeys (yes, from The Wizard of Oz) in office politics

• How to exorcise the negative energy of a haunted home office

• And why some workplaces are being sabotaged from the inside — one “friendly” colleague at a time

Paul also shares a jaw-dropping sliding doors moment involving a near-death plane crash, the power of handwritten letters (from actual presidents and celebrities), and why working from home full-time might be shrinking your world.

If you’ve ever worked with a colleague who drained your energy, spread whispers, or left meetings worse than when they started — this episode will give you clarity, language, and even a strategy to deal with it.
