Asian Canadian Litigator Networking Mingle (15 Apr 2026)

Thu, 16 Apr 2026 01:00:00 GMT

Join us for a gathering of Asian Canadian litigators to connect, share experiences, and build community.

Asian Canadian litigators remain underrepresented within the litigation bar, and there can be limited opportunities for members of this community to connect across firms and stages of practice.

This gathering provides an opportunity to share experiences, discuss the challenges and successes faced by Asian Canadian litigators in the profession, and foster meaningful dialogue. It is also a welcoming space for junior and aspiring litigators to meet peers and more experienced practitioners, ask questions, and gain insight into navigating a career in litigation. Guests will be provided with refreshments while networking and connecting with fellow professionals.

This event is complimentary to FACL BC members and made possible through the generous support of Lawson Lundell LLP.

Final note:
