In this episode of Studying Law Around the World, I sit down with Lotus Menezes, an Osgoode LL.M. graduate with a legal career spanning Tanzania, South Africa, and Canada. Lotus shares her journey from boarding school in Kenya to practicing corporate and commercial law in Toronto, with experiences in mining, natural resources, and entertainment law along the way.

We talk about adapting across jurisdictions, staying grounded through change, and the importance of community and mentorship. Lotus also reflects on giving back through her work with organizations like the Canadian Association of Black Lawyers and Artists’ Legal Advice Services.

This is a great episode for internationally trained lawyers, law students, and anyone interested in how adaptability, connection, and service can shape a meaningful legal career.
