• Be willing to travel throughout Ontario.
• Balance strong attention to detail with the ability to see the bigger picture.
• Be adaptable and comfortable communicating in a more approachable and conversational style than traditional legal writing.
• Embrace new technologies and use them effectively to enhance learning, engagement, collaboration, and user experience.
• Demonstrate a commitment to LAWPRO’s vision, values, and organizational goals.
