Melanie Timms

BCom, LLB – Associate Solicitor

Graduating with both a Commerce degree and a Law degree Melanie joined Gascoigne Wicks in 1997, where she worked as a lawyer for fourteen years.  In 2013 Melanie joined Crichton Loach as an Associate and was part of their merger into Wain & Naysmith in 2014.

Melanie’s work mainly covers looking after Estates and Trusts files. Her compassionate nature holds her in high regard when looking after families going through the difficult time of losing a loved one. Likewise, the complexities of Trust work utilises her love of being thorough and researching all aspects of a complex web of information and relationships.

As a busy mum and ‘farmer’s wife’, weekends are all about getting people to their extra curricular activities and interests.  Renovating the old farm villa has been an ongoing project, which Melanie says is looking like a lifelong commitment! To unwind, she enjoys gardening and reading as much as possible.
