MONTREAL – Former Quebec premier Jean Charest is returning to the legal world.

Charest has landed a job with McCarthy Tetrault LLP where he will specialize in business law.

McCarthy Tetrault made the announcement on its website today.

Charest was Quebec premier between 2003 and his election defeat last September.

He was admitted to the Quebec Bar in 1981, three years before he first became a Progressive Conservative MP under Brian Mulroney.
