Lauren summered and articled at Lenczner Slaght, where she gained experience in corporate litigation, professional liability and regulation, construction law, and large-scale commercial arbitrations.

Lauren completed her JD at the University of Toronto Faculty of Law. She discovered her passion for litigation while studying trial advocacy and subsequently represented the University of Toronto at the Arnup Cup Trial Advocacy Competition and placed first at the Davies Corporate Securities Law moot.

As a law student, Lauren was deeply engaged in the faculty of law and its community, volunteering with the International Human Rights Project, the Law Union, and the Canadian Centre for Housing Rights. Her resolute advocacy was further demonstrated in her founding and co-leading of the David Asper Centre for Constitutional Rights’ Reproductive Rights working group.

While at the University of Toronto, Lauren was awarded the Burgoyne Award of Excellence. The award is described as the most distinguished awards program presented to JD candidates and is recommended by faculty members based on academic excellence.
