Law & mining
Hey I am just wondering if anybody would be able to chime in here and give me some advice as a prospective law student.
I am finishing up a masters this upcoming year and am trying to think of what is next.
One of the options I am considering is law school. Specifically, I want to go to law school to work in law that is tied to mining & natural resource governance / development & indigenous issues.
Does anyone here have any experience in these types of firms? (in Canada or more broadly).
what is life like in them?
is the pay rewarding? (id assume so and is one of my motivators)
what do lawyers in this thematic area / niche work on?
and how does one target or find them?
Rationale: I have 5 years experience in the mining / mineral exploration industry and would like to use that knowledge and network as a base for a niche in law.
