AWL brought back its Firm Memberships in 2024 and was very successful having 19 firms sign up their women lawyers to be AWL Members. We are again offering Firm Memberships for the 2025 year. AWL has tried to directly contact many Calgary firms about this opportunity, but wanted to highlight this offer to our current membership.
As a Firm Member of AWL, the firm will receive a discounted membership rate for all women lawyers of the firm who wish to become members of AWL. The Articling Student membership will remain free.
Our regular membership costs are increasing in 2025 to $40 for under 5 years of call and $60 for 5+ years of call. Should your firm choose to become a Firm Member, your firm’s women lawyers will receive a discounted rate. Firms that sign up 10 or more women lawyers to be AWL Members will pay $30 per women regardless of year of call. Smaller firms that sign up 9 or less women will pay $40 per woman regardless of year of call.
To become a Firm Member, please provide us with a list of the all the women lawyers in your firm who wish to become AWL members (or maintain their membership), along with their emails, year of call and a cheque for the total amount of membership dues per women in your office (other payment options can be arranged, like an e-transfer). At your request we can also prepare an invoice for the owing membership dues. Once we receive your list and dues we will then sign up the indicated women lawyers as AWL members and they will begin (or continue) to receive our email notifications of all upcoming events. AWL memberships run from January 1 to December 31 of the calendar year. We are reaching out for the 2025 calendar year.
If you have any questions about the Firm Memberships, please do not hesitate to contact our Membership Co-Chair – Kourtney Pratt at kpratt@lawsonlundell.com. Please send all membership lists of your firm members to Kourtney as well.
We look forward to another exciting year in 2025!
