Before too long, James realized he did not want to spend a significant part of his life away from his family and friends, and moved back home to Nova Scotia to study law at Dalhousie University’s Schulich School of Law. After law school James articled with a small firm in Glace Bay before relocating back to Halifax to be closer to his partner, Katelyn.
