Unity
Melanie is a commercially minded lawyer and is passionate about obtaining a swift, sensible resolution for her clients and maintaining and nurturing her client relationships which are very important to her.
Melanie commenced her career with a national firm in 2003, with a focus on general litigation and debt recovery. In a career that has spanned well over 15 years, Melanie has worked in Adelaide, Melbourne and Brisbane. Her move from Melbourne to Brisbane saw her take the lead to set up and grow a new office. During her time in Melbourne and Brisbane she also made some fantastic connections that she continues today.
Moving back to Adelaide in 2008, she worked for a well-regarded Adelaide firm, becoming a partner there in 2012. She later took on a role with another reputable Adelaide firm as Special Counsel.
In 2021, following the sad passing of Daniel Roach, Melanie became sole director and manager of the firm and is dedicated to ensuring excellent legal service to clients and continued community involvement by the LRB team.
Her early practise in debt recovery expanded to cover insolvency, banking and finance, property law, and general commercial litigation. She also has a host of experience in wills and estate litigation, and employment law – running several unfair dismissal, redundancy, and harassment cases for employers and employees.
When she is not at work, she is busy as a single mother with her little boy and two dogs.

Joining Tammy's Table has been one of the best business decisions I've made. From the very first meeting, I felt genuinely welcomed. Tammy has created such a warm, supportive environment where everyone feels comfortable sharing their experiences, challenges and ideas. There is a real sense of trust and confidentiality, which makes it easy to be open and honest. Every member brings a wealth of business experience, and I always walk away having learnt something new. The monthly topics are thoughtfully chosen and explored in depth, and I've implemented many of the ideas and strategies we've discussed into my own business. As a small business owner, it can sometimes feel like you're making every decision on your own. Tammy's Table has become an extension of my support network. It's reassuring to know there is a group of like-minded business owners who genuinely want to help each other succeed, and that I can reach out between meetings if I need advice or another perspective. I've also loved being able to contribute my own experiences and support others. It's a community where everyone has something valuable to offer. If you're looking for genuine connection, support and practical business wisdom, I highly recommend Tammy's Table.

Tammy's Customer Journey workshop was fun, practical and focused on giving me an outcome in the form of a working document to guide streamlining our processes.
