Request Time with a Coach or Advisor

The Law Society’s Coach and Advisor Network (CAN) provides lawyers and paralegals with access to shorter-term, outcome-oriented relationships with Coaches and Advisors drawn from the professions. Coaches support the implementation of best practices and Advisors assist with substantive and procedural law inquiries on client files. Upon submission of your Request, you will receive an automated email detailing next steps . If you do not receive an email immediately, check your junk mail. If no email is received, please contact CAN.


Do you want to develop a specific skill or tackle a practice management best practice over the next few months?

Do you have a question about a client file that would benefit from a phone call with a seasoned practitioner?

 A Coach can help. You will begin with a 1.5-hour session with a Coach followed by a series of five 30-minute sessions set on alternating weeks, resulting in approximately a 3-month commitment. Match or status report in 2 weeks.
