PROFILE

The Practice Support Lawyer is a key contributor to Gowling WLG’s A.I., Innovation, and Knowledge strategy, enhancing the efficiency, technical quality, and client service of our Disputes Department and associated Practice Groups.

Assist in the preparation of client materials, proposals, and other strategic initiatives that showcase the expertise of the Disputes Department and associated Practice Groups.
Support the delivery of client seminars and innovation workshops.

Training and Learning

Design and deliver substantive programming for lawyers and students on current legal topics, precedents, and practice tools.
Support Learning & Development by coordinating technical and professional training initiatives within the Disputes Department and associated Practice Groups.

Knowledge Development and Management

Create, maintain, and update model precedents, templates, and checklists relevant to the Disputes Department and associated Practice Groups.
Develop and implement best practices to ensure knowledge is shared and easily accessible across the Disputes Department and associated Practice Groups.
Lead efforts to automate and modernize precedents and matter workflows in collaboration with Gowling WLG’s Innovation and A.I. teams.
Liaise with Practice Technology and Library Services to ensure the Disputes Department and associated Practice Groups have access to a comprehensive suite of practice technologies and relevant resources.
