Lara is a Law Clerk at Melino Legal, supporting the team across the day-to-day work that keeps matters moving. In her first role in law, she has quickly become known for her initiative, professionalism and an impressive turn of speed at the keyboard. She particularly enjoys preparing medical chronologies, where an interest in the medical field gives her an excuse to read, learn and put the pieces together.

Calm, polished and almost impossible to rattle, Lara is a trusted pair of hands with clients and colleagues alike. Years spent tutoring may have something to do with the patience — she’s comfortable with people, quick to help and brings a positive energy to the office, even when things get busy.

Away from work, Lara volunteers her time in the community and is usually not far from the gym or volleyball court. While caffeine may be the engine behind all that energy, Lara is the office go-to for a good matcha — usually while sipping a chai latte herself.
