Laura Chartier
Articling Student
Grounded in strong Saskatoon roots and dedicated to bringing a practical, relationship-focused approach to family dispute resolution.
Born and raised in Saskatoon, I have a deep connection to this land and my community. I attended the University of Saskatchewan for my post-secondary education, acquiring my B.Comm (with distinction) in 2020 and my Juris Doctor (with distinction) in 2026. I began articling with Panko Collaborative Law and Mediation in June 2026. I believe that family dynamics are foundational to the way we function in this world. Solving disputes while preserving the integrity of relationships is how I want to pursue my legal practice. I sought my articles at Panko because of my alignment with this firm’s values: empowerment, excellence, and relationships. I am eager to learn from this team of collaborative, supportive lawyers and support staff. In my free time, I like to be outside as much as possible. You will often find me walking, biking, rock climbing, hiking, or attending a music festival. When I’m indoors, I love to curl up with a good book and some tea and hang out with my frog, Venus.
