Today, we honor the extraordinary legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. His vision of unity and justice continues to inspire people worldwide and pave the way for progress, reminding us that the work toward inclusion and equality is continuous. As we reflect on his life and achievements, let’s remember his courage and commitment to creating a better world for all. Together, we can carry forward his belief in the power of kindness, compassion, and unity to make lasting change.
We believe collaboration and mentorship are essential to talent growth and development. Guided by these principles, our Expert Witness Mentorship Program, sponsored by Executive Chairman Jon Held, pairs senior leaders with rising team members to foster knowledge transfer and personalized learning. The program is designed to strengthen skill development, build confidence in testimony delivery, and encourage feedback while deepening our investment in talent. Over the span of nine months, participants engage in expert panels, live practice sessions, and one-on-one guidance, focusing on both technical skills and interdisciplinary knowledge. We are grateful to all throughout our organization who contributed to the launch of the program and who continue to engage in meaningful mentorship. Your time, dedication, and expertise are deeply appreciated!
Wishing you a bright and successful New Year from all of us at J.S. Held! As we step into 2026, we’re focused on driving meaningful progress through collaboration, innovation, and impact that matters for our clients, our team, and the communities we serve. Here’s to a year of shared success and impact that matters. #HeldTogether

Today, we pause to honour the members of our armed forces who served, and those who gave their lives in the name of duty and country. At 11 a.m., we observe a moment of silence. Across Canada and the UK, this shared tradition invites us to reflect on the courage, service, and quiet strength of those who stood for something greater than themselves. Remembrance Day reminds us that peace is not passive. It is shaped by those who served and sustained by those who remember. Join us as we honour their legacy and carry it forward with gratitude and resolve.
