Dara advises high performers navigating complex deals, business growth, and strategic decision-making. She is trusted for her intelligence, discretion, and tact in high-stakes negotiations and disputes involving athletes, founders, creatives, and growing businesses.
A former elite boxer, Dara competed as a member of the U.S. National Team and the Taiwanese Olympic Team. She developed her legal foundation through experience with Apple, the U.S. Attorney’s Office, and Maximus. Her background in both law and high-performance sport gives her a rare ability to navigate pressure, power, and complex human dynamics with clarity and composure.
Her longstanding ties to the boxing world, including experience across Olympic and professional circles, give her clients the benefit of counsel informed by firsthand understanding of the sport’s culture, institutions, and business realities.
In law school, she served as President of the Asian Pacific American Law Students Association and held leadership roles in mock trial and negotiation, experiences that sharpened the strategic, composed, and high-trust counsel she provides today.
Dara’s practice is grounded in thoughtful strategy, discretion, and relationships built on trust. She is especially drawn to clients building something meaningful on their own terms and offers counsel tailored to the realities of ambitious people working in complex, high-stakes spaces.
