Featuring Lisa Van Arnhem, Gorbet & Associates & Heather Kawaguchi, Kawaguchi Krajden

You will hear about how Heather went from being an Associate in private practice to being the founding partner of her own firm in Toronto, and how Lisa made the decision to switch from private practice to join a new in-house program, and is now managing the cross-Canada program. They will discuss the new legal (and social) landscape and the responsibilities we all have to ensure inclusion and diversity in the legal community in which we practice. They will share stories of their successes and their challenges and give you insight into how to make your legal career everything you need and want it to be. It’s a new world with infinite possibilities and it's time to get on board!
