The Young Advocates’ Standing Committee (“YASC”) is a standing committee of The Advocates’ Society with a mandate to be a
voice for young advocates (advocates who are ten years of call or fewer) within the Society and within the profession. We do this
through networking/mentoring events, by publishing articles by and for young advocates, and by raising issues of concern to
young advocates as we work with the Society’s Board of Directors. The opinions expressed by individual authors are their own
and do not necessarily reflect the policies of The Advocates’ Society.
