Part 2: Tayla and Adair talk admission, tokenism, and bringing Tikanga into the way law is practised

Update: 2021-04-05

Description

This is part 2 of my conversation with Tayla and Adair, solicitors at Kāhui legal, in which we talk about issues and experiences in law that matter most to them. These include their experiences of admission, of some misguided and tokenistic ways firms attempt to improve diversity in the profession, and of bringing te reo and Tikanga Māori into the way they practise. They were so generous with their perspectives and experience and I loved it all.

Tayla and Adair also contributed a chapter to my book The New Lawyer Companion: Essays on law, life and humanity, available to the public later in 2021.
