At the onset of her career, Mrs. Fournier joined forces with Serge Bernier, and together founded their own firm. She thus gained a wealth of experience in several fields of law, including family, civil, and criminal law.

For many years, she has been involved with various committees of the Quebec Bar and was the Leader of the Bar of Arthabaska District.
