Partner Stephen Kelly has been featured in the latest edition of the Canadian Lawyer, speaking about the growth of Norton Rose Fulbright and his career path, starting as a young associate to becoming the Canadian national chair of the business law group.
Stephen spoke about his various leadership roles within the firm and his passion for the recruitment of young associates. He also described why he moved from litigation to corporate law.
“I loved the team approach of corporate practice. I thought it was fun. When a client was calling us, generally, they wanted to do something positive. They wanted to grow their business. They wanted to raise funds to expand.”
