Practising in Saskatoon
SEAN SINCLAIR, Robertson Stromberg LLP + PROS:
• Th e Saskatoon/Saskatchewan economy is strong right now and there is plenty of interesting and chal- lenging work. • Th ere is a tight-knit and friendly legal community. • Students and junior lawyers tend to get involved with clients and major transactions at an early stage of their development. • Th e city is still quite a manageable size allowing for reasonable commutes to work (10-20 minutes on average). • Work hours and expectations may be less than in some other major centres.
- CONS:
• Saskatoon has grown quickly over the past few years, which has increased the cost of housing. • Billing rates and lawyer compensation do not likely match some major centres.
