Life in Law is a free resource for all lawyers in Canada who self-identify as women seeking help balancing life and law. Our services are casual and flexible and are provided primarily through phone or online chat support and our
'Dear LiL' blog.

You are resilient. You are strong. And sometimes you just need an ear.

Our skilled, experienced and caring advisors are here to listen, not judge. They are here to provide you with the support you need, when you need it.

Let's Talk

While we may be big fans of talking on the phone, we know that not everyone is. Our Online Chat Support is just another way for us to ensure women lawyers get the support they need, when and how they need it.

It’s kind of great. It’s the place where we provide thoughtful comments on some of the most commonly asked questions and ruminate on issues that affect many women lawyers. We hope the blog gives you not only an immediate answer, but also comfort that you are not alone.

Our sessions are designed for professional and personal development. They are not designed to give substantive legal or medical advice.

Because of the limits to the assistance that LiL offers we thought it would be helpful to provide you with a list of other support services that can provide practice advice, advice on legal or ethical issues, addiction, mental or physical health.

If you need immediate, emergency help, please call 911.

We get it – the transition from articling student to associate is a big leap, so why make it alone? We’ve got a handful of fresh associates (also known as “LiL Allies”) who have some great advice to offer regarding their experiences.

This is the place to submit your student-specific questions to the Dear Lil blog!

Frayed?  Frustrated?  Fed up?

Sometimes when everything becomes so overwhelming, all you want to do is scream, or yell, or cry or even laugh at the absurdity of it all! You are not alone. We get it. We’ve done it! Not that it necessarily fixed anything, but it sure felt good. We got to thinking that if it made us feel better, maybe it would make other women feel better too. So we created something just for you.

Welcome to the LiL Roar Line, an alternate to screaming into the void.  Go ahead, give it a try.
