To share common concerns<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong><\/span><\/span>\u00ab In 2008, I was encouraged by a well-respected colleague of mine, Mtre Donald Michelin, to get involved in one of the many committees of the Bar of Montreal. I was invited to join \u201cLes avocates dans la profession\u201d where I continue to be an active member. Participating in the committee is one of my most gratifying experiences. I find it very rewarding to meet colleagues from various backgrounds who share similar concerns. I am convinced that once members of the Bar of Montreal become involved in its activities, they will feel more connected and fulfilled. I also believe that participating offers a unique opportunity to collaborate with the dedicated people who run the Bar of Montreal, and to be part of a team that will make a long-lasting, positive contribution to its future. \u00bb<\/span><\/p>\n

Robin Schiller, lawyer<\/span><\/p>\n

After her admission to the Quebec Bar in 1984, Mtre Robin Schiller was invited to join her current firm, Handelman, Handelman & Schiller as a partner. Over the years, Mtre Schiller developed a general law practice, with a focus on corporate-commercial law. She particularly enjoys the problem-solving and strategizing aspects of the profession, as well as the long-term relationships that are created with both colleagues and clients. Mtre Schiller is married and has four sons.<\/p>\n

After learning that female lawyers were regularly leaving the profession after only a few years of practice because of work-life challenges, the committee of Les avocates dans la profession decided that something needed to be done. With the help of the committee members, Mtre Schiller created their annual \u201cSpeed-Meet\u201d events. These meetings provide a unique opportunity for law students at UQAM, UdeM and McGill to ask questions and receive advice and encouragement from female judges and lawyers. The meetings continue to be a tremendous success, attracting both male and female students who are concerned about their future.<\/p>\n

Not only is this project at the heart of Mtre Schiller\u2019s goal to share and address common concerns with other members of the Bar of Montreal, but it is also a great example of the impact that the Bar of Montreal can have on the legal community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
