Co-Author
”Learning Professionalism in the Practice of Law”
for the Chief Justice of Ontario Advisory Committee on Professionalism
2013
Dr. Shelley Keirstead of Osgoode Hall Law School and I conducted a qualitative study of how Ontario lawyers learned professionalism in practice. We ran a number of focus groups in multiple locations, including participants from large law firms, small law firms, and sole practitioners. We concluded that engaging in problem solving and reflection through problems embedded in the workplace is essential to learning ethical sensitivity, reasoning, and managing ethical issues.
