What advice would you give to legal professionals considering a transition to a flexible legal career?  

Start by envisioning your ideal life without limitations. Picture a day from the moment you wake up: what you see, feel, and experience. That clarity becomes your benchmark for designing a career that aligns with your values and ambitions. Once you know what you’re aiming for, it becomes much easier to pursue opportunities that truly support your success.

In what ways do you see the legal industry evolving to accommodate flexible, on-demand legal talent?  

Organizations are prioritizing agility more than ever. On-demand legal talent is central to that shift, enabling companies to quickly bring in highly specialized expertise for targeted projects or transformations. This model not only increases operational responsiveness but also elevates the impact of legal teams overall.
