From Georgetown Law: a video interview with Jordan Furlong

April 2, 2010
/ Georgetown Law Center: The "Law Firm Evolution" conference

Part of our coverage of “Law Firm Evolution: Brave New World or Business As Usual?”, a conference held March 21-23, 2010 by the Georgetown Center for the Study of the Legal Profession. For all our posts on the conference click here.

After graduating from Queen’s University Faculty of Law (Ontario) in 1993, he articled with Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP in 1994 before beginning a career in legal journalism.
