Michelle Gimmi

Trainee Solicitor
Wills, Probate & Lifetime Planning

Michelle joined Woodfines in September 2022 as a Paralegal in the private client team. She secured a training contract with Woodfines, taking her first seat on the private client team.

Michelle studied for her undergraduate degree in law at the University of Hertfordshire, attaining a 2:1 grade. She continued her studies at the same university by enrolling in the Masters in Legal Practice Course, where she achieved a distinction grade. Before joining Woodfines, Michelle worked at a law firm in London as a legal assistant on their private client team.

Michelle will qualify as a Solicitor next year and hopes to continue her journey at Woodfines.

In Michelle’s spare time, she loves cooking and baking as she says it is in her nature due to her being Italian; no guests leave her home hungry or without some leftovers!

Michelle also loves spending time and making memories with her boyfriend, her rabbit called Marble, and her family and friends.

More about Michelle… 

What’s the most daring/scariest thing you have done?

Ziplining! I was supervising a school trip and the children encouraged me to go on the zipline, which I did. It was the most scariest thing I had ever done in my life. I screamed most of the time, but it was fun!

If you weren’t a lawyer or in your current profession, what would you be doing?

I would be a teacher. I worked at a school for many years in the office, I was a covid classroom support and did some TA work so I would pursue a career in teaching if law was not my passion!

My son and I found you very helpful. We were dealt with quickly and efficiently but in a friendly manner. You answered all our questions, and we were very pleased with the handling of our situation.
