Plamondon was also a lawyer in the litigation department of Stikeman Elliott, a renowned national law firm.[2]

In 2009, he joined the law firm Delegatus as vice-president and shareholder of the firm.[3] Recognized for his social involvement, Plamondon was awarded the title of Lawyer of the Year in 2010, in the pro bono category, at the Young Bar Association of Montreal's annual conference celebrating the "leaders of tomorrow".[4]

In 2007, he co-founded Génération d'idées, a non-profit think tank whose mission is to interest 20-35 year olds in public debate by inviting them to express themselves on societal themes on the various platforms of Génération d'idées.

In 2009, in order to promote Generation of Ideas and to sound out the opinion of Quebec's Generation Y, Paul St-Pierre Plamondon visited 19 Quebec cities in 63 days and collected the thoughts of 500 young people.
