On Thursday, March 19, our partners Jean-Philippe Beaudry, Xavier Hamel and Joanie Proteau will deliver a presentation entitled Négocier efficacement: ce que l’expérience ne vous apprend pas à l’école [Effective negotiation: What experience teaches you that school doesn’t]. The partners will describe crucial red flags and preventive measures for negotiations and dispute resolutions. They will also discuss best practices for protecting negotiation stages and minimizing professional risks.
On Friday, March 20, our partner Samuel Gagnon will co-host a lunchtime session entitled Les bonnes pratiques en début de carrière [Best practices for early-career professionals]. This session brings together three lawyers who will share firsthand experiences from early in their careers and address some concrete realities of legal practice.
