Danielle Hatchitt

Danielle Hatchitt is a partner at Weisbart Springer Hayes, where she practices business litigation and employment law. A trial lawyer at heart, Danielle is highly skilled in the courtroom and always fights to win. When she’s not in the courtroom, Danielle advises her clients on a multitude of employment-related matters, ranging from day-to-day general employment operations and restrictive-covenant enforcement to agency investigations.

Danielle earned her law degree from Baylor Law School with high honors and was a member of Baylor’s Law Review and Moot Court and Mock Trial Teams. While in law school, she served as a legal intern for Magistrate Judge Jeffrey Manske of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas.

Danielle began her legal career at a litigation boutique firm in Houston. She tried and won her first jury trial in federal court less than three years after graduating from law school and since then has established a proven track record of successes in the courtroom, as well as in arbitrations, administrative agency hearings and on appeal in the Texas Courts of Appeals, the Texas Supreme Court and the Fifth Circuit. While Danielle is a strong advocate in the courtroom, she also recognizes when trial is not the best way forward for her clients, and her skill at negotiating favorable terms for her clients is equally strong.

Danielle has represented both plaintiffs and defendants in commercial disputes involving real estate, entitlement and municipal law issues, partnership disputes, fiduciary litigation, breach of contract, intellectual property protection, breach of non-competition and non-solicitation agreements, and other general employment claims, including discrimination and harassment. Danielle also has significant experience handling litigation under Title IX, the federal law governing the responsibility of educational institutions regarding sex discrimination.

Danielle’s resume will tell you that she has impressive credentials and a proven track record. But her clients will tell you she is a fiercely loyal advocate dedicated to achieving the best possible outcomes for her clients.
