Advice to Young Lawyers from Bennett Jones CEO Dominique Hussey

October 30, 2024

Bennett Jones CEO Dominique Hussey offers advice to young lawyers in The Globe and Mail’s November 2024 ROB Magazine. She tells budding legal practitioners:

“The easiest way to impress partners is with impeccable, practical work product, delivered on time. Show that you understood the assignment. Will your work be part of an email to a client or a memorandum for the Court? Go that extra mile to prepare a few point-first, clear, concise paragraphs for the partner to use. Always run your work through a spelling check, a grammar check, and if you have it, a clarity check. Avoidable errors make decent work look bad. Proofing makes decent work look great. Clarity makes great work excellent. Practicality makes excellent work magnificent.”

November’s ROB Magazine includes a guide to corporate law for young lawyers in its coverage of Canada’s Best Law Firms. 

Bennett Jones won the Canada’s Best Law Firms 2025 award in the Energy & Natural Resources (Mining, Oil & Gas) category.

The full November 2024 issue of Report on Business Magazine is available here.
