Work/life balance in New Brunswick: Christopher Stewart shares what it’s like to be a lawyer in the province
Moncton managing partner Christopher Stewart is featured in a recent Canadian Lawyer article detailing the mindset of lawyers who have chosen to settle in the province.
Chris describes the legal community in New Brunswick as “close-knit” – through working together, individuals have developed a mutual respect for one another, which can make business with clients run more efficiently. While the high quality of life and small town mindset is what made Chris stay in the province, he certainly accepts and embraces the regional connection being built across Atlantic Canada: “[this approach] is a reflection of market realities and also a function of good business sense and efficiencies.”
