You’ve watched other professions enjoy the enviable benefits of a guaranteed pension for life while you’ve likely been left on your own to save what you can for retirement. Chances are pretty good that you don’t have access to a guaranteed pension plan that can move with you and grow over your career.
So long, status quo
In 2016, Lawyers Financial created a task force of leading pension and actuarial experts with a mission to find a better pension alternative for lawyers. The evidence was clear: Lawyers Financial needed to join forces with the Colleges of Applied Arts and Technology (CAAT) Pension Plan to provide predictable and sustainable lifetime income for Canada’s legal community.
