Student Programs
Summer Student Program
We hire two to three second year summer law students each year. Through our stimulating summer student program, we aim to immerse our student in the practice of law by providing hands-on experience in every aspect of our practice and client relations. Our summer students are encouraged to become familiar with files and become actively involved from beginning to end. Our students are provided with the opportunity to participate in client meetings, attend court, and participate in corporate and real estate transactions and closings. Our students are assigned to a mentor, but will have the opportunity to work with lawyers in all departments over the course of the summer; there is no formal rotation system in place. We take pride in our friendly and collegial environment and our summer students become a member of our team, attending practice group meetings and all firm and associate events. It is our hope that our summer students will become successful additions to our firm and that they will return the following year as our articling students.
2026 Summer Student Interview Process
We do not participate in the LSO OCI or In Firm Interview Week process. Students for the 2026 term have been hired.
Articling Student Program
We hire two to three articling students each year. Our articling program is an extension of our summer student program in that it is stimulating and best suited to self-motivated candidates. As our articling students gain confidence, they are encouraged to take on a greater degree of responsibility and more challenging work. Whether arguing motions, conducting client intake meetings or managing files, our articling students are given hands-on practical work, which adds important value to our firm. Students for the 2026/2027 articling terms have been hired.
