VALL members are invited to meet and mingle over morning coffee, tea, and pastries Tuesday, June 12th, 2018 at the Courthouse Library. In addition, VALL would like to extend a warm welcome to our meet & greet guest Kensi Gounden.
Kensi Gounden joined the Courthouse Libraries BC as CEO in May 2017, succeeding Johanne Blenkin. Kensi was called to the Bar in 1991, and worked in a general practice before joining the Law Society in 1998 as a Professional Conduct Lawyer. Over the next 18 years his responsibilities expanded to include the management of Professional Development, Practice Advice and Practice Standards. Through his work as a private practitioner and work with the Law Society, Kensi became familiar with the issues facing the unrepresented parties and sole and small practitioners in the justice system. He is committed to using the library’s resources to assist all lawyers in giving the best quality of service to their clients and to provide better access to justice for individuals.
