I came to Calgary, from Bosnia, with her family, in 1994. She attended the University of Calgary for her undergraduate degree, obtaining a Bachelor of Arts in Humanities in 2009. She continued her education with law school, at the University of Manitoba, obtaining her Juris Doctor degree there in 2013.
Upon graduation, I returned to Calgary, and completed her articles at Braithwaite Boyle. While articling, she developed a passion for personal injury, and has been dedicated to contributing to the firm’s long history of excellence ever since.
Melina understands the challenges that an injured person faces in a complicated legal landscape. She always works hard to advocate on her clients’ behalf, and to ensure that their rights and interests are fully protected.
I was always been an active member of her community. I love to volunteering with Calgary Youth Justice for many years, then with the Winnipeg Legal Help Centre while in law school. Since then, I continued to volunteer my time, serving as a facilitator and evaluator for the Legal Education Society
Upon 2023 I return to Europe where I work as co-owner of company in Estonia and Latvia and continue advise companies on legal procedure.
I am fluent in Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian, English and Slovenian
