An interlude to my Miami content to show you a very Harry Potter moment from yesterday’s admittance to the Roll of Solicitors ceremony -a proud moment for both me and my family ♥️ If there is one thing I have taken from this experience it is that you should always know your worth and never sell yourself short Have a lovely Saturday x

(1) I attended the inaugural London Law Conference on Saturday. It was such a well-organised day with a series of well-established and impressive speakers from amazing firms. While each speaker gave insight into what they do and their views on certain topics; without going into too much detail I wanted to list a couple of things I took from each session which I consider to be important. The first speaker was Sir Christopher Bellamy QC, the Chairman of the Linklaters Global Competition Practice, who spoke about the challenges lawyers face, split into three categories – professional, political and moral challenges. It really was an eye-opener to hear about the dangers of specialising and not being truly “aware” and the dangers of losing touch of the general principles (from contract, criminal, tort and administrative law) forming the foundations of the legal system. Secondly, we need to be aware of the underlying constitutional issues of Brexit and understand its implications by reading around the topic and forming opinions about it. Thirdly, access to justice is under threat so we need to volunteer and do our bit! The second session was ‘A conversation with Will Pearce’, a partner at Davis Polk. It was interesting to hear about the importance of understanding a firm’s business model, the way the firm operates as well as why that model was adopted. This will help you when researching whether a firm is right for you because it shows the nature of client base the firm aim to attract. The third session was an interview with Nnamdi Emelifeonwu, the founder of Defeyene, who spoke about the importance of believing in yourself and your abilities. He emphasised the importance of having an entrepreneurial streak and not falling into the trap of doing something just because it’s secure. He also spoke about the sacrifices he made to get him to where he is right now, and the important lessons learnt from those sacrifices. The fourth speaker was Paul Smith, a partner and former chairman at Eversheds Sutherland, who spoke about developing your own network and increasing your value as a person and a professional. Know what YOU can do for others, not what others can GIVE you!

I came to Canada with my family when I was almost 15 years old. My maternal grandfather was a prosecutor and then called to the bench as a judge, during communism in Albania. Although I lost him when I was 13 I was always close to him. He was a wise man whose compassion, generosity and confidence were among many of his greatest qualities, not to mention he was an amazing story teller. I embodied a lot of his qualities and a part of me has always desired to carry a part of him, and choosing law, was just that. For my undergrad, I chose to double major in English and Italian and graduated with Honours. I applied to Law Schools in Ontario but my LSAT (which I despised) was not acceptable and so I did not get in. At this point I would lose a year but that was the year I turned to my backup plan which was Teacher’s College, Bachelor of Education. It was a one year program which turned out to be most favorable. I chose to teach intermediate/ senior which would give me the opportunity to teach in high schools. Since I was bullied a lot in high school, I thought going back would provide me the opportunity to make a change in other students’ lives. Teaching came natural to me as it was a skill inherited from my mother. But it was not fulfilling and staying within 4 walls of a classroom while my students left to pursue their dreams, made me uneasy. So I went to London, England for 2 years to complete my LLB and came back Came back to Ontario, got accredited and started articling. The licensing process was challenging. Two years after, I still have nightmares about showing up late for my solicitor’s exam. I am located in the Greater Toronto Area, and I practice criminal defense, immigration and a bit of civil and family. I am challenged every day from clients, judges, other counsels but not a day goes by when I am not thankful for being a lawyer. Regardless of the roadblocks, constructive criticism, bullying, and attempted intimidations, I love my career. I never lost focus and I am a great example of dedication paying off at getting what you want in the end. So trust in yourself, work within your timeline, and you will get far. Lusi Brace

(2) The fifth session was a Q&A session with a panel of trainees, all of whom emphasised how we need to make ourselves valuable by going the extra mile to be there for people when they need it in a professional setting. Also, making sure you develop the ability to use your foresight to figure out what to do next. For example, if you are given a document to proof-read during work experience then try to think about the next steps required after proof-reading and ask whether you can get involved in the next step. The sixth speaker was James Banks, from BCLP, who went through the anatomy of a deal. I learnt how a deal is made and the steps involved highlighted the complexity and pressure on lawyers leading up to finalising the deal! Even then, there is a ‘post-completion’ step so the work never really ends but that is what makes this kind of work profitable for a firm. The last session was an application workshop by Allen & Overy which highlighted the core skills (keep swiping to find the image) required to become successful commercial lawyers. It is important to use your extracurriculars to develop those skills and get a practical understanding to make yourself a successful candidate for a training contract. The workshop also involved an interactive case study exercise where the delegates explained what they would do if they were in a particular situation. For case studies, it is important to explain the steps you would take in a logical and methodical manner if you were in a difficult situation so try your best not to panic during this type of assessment in the real thing!
