Western Canadian law firm Stringam Law has had a sustained period of expansion, transforming from a single location to an established network with offices across Alberta and Saskatchewan. With that growth came a strategic shift to a more corporate leadership approach, culminating in Kurt Schlachter's appointment as CEO in 2023. Unlike many law firm leaders who continue to practise law, Schlachter took on a full-time management role in line with the firm’s plans to do things differently. This has allowed him to focus on expansion and internal culture. The firm now operates out of 15 offices and plans to increase its presence in Western Canada. He spoke with CL Talk about his leadership philosophy and his firm's expansion plans.
