Across the country, Windsor Law alums like Diana Miles ’88 and Dan Pinnington ‘91 are attaining prominence in leadership roles within the legal profession.
Miles was recently appointed CEO of the Law Society of Ontario by Treasurer and President, Paul Schabas.
She joined the Law Society in 2001 and has assumed multiple leadership roles within the organization before her appointment as CEO.
“Ms. Miles has played a central role in the organization’s evolution over that time,” said Schabas in a press release regarding the appointment. “Her experience as a lawyer, called to the Ontario Bar in 1990, as a law firm administrator, and her deep knowledge of the Law Society, places her in the ideal position to lead the organization through its next chapter.”
In April, the Lawyers’ Professional Indemnity Company (LAWPRO) announced the appointment of Dan Pinnington as president and CEO. Dan joined LAWPRO in 2001 to drive the practicePRO program, an innovative and internationally recognized claims prevention initiative.
He is highly regarded within the legal profession and with other legal system stakeholders. He has a deep knowledge of the legal profession, legal technology and the factors that will bring change to the legal services arena in the short and long term.
Windsor Law is proud to have many alumni serving as counsel and in leadership roles in these governing bodies and organizations that are shaping the future for lawyers.
