Testimonials

"One of the most surprising things about the summer student experience is the exposure to several different practice areas."

"You can really cater your work to your interests, as there is no formal rotation. The amount of exposure to some of Canada’s best lawyers also provides a tremendous opportunity to learn about a variety of practice areas you perhaps may not have been drawn to initially. I found that going back to law school in the fall, I was better prepared for certain classes and even registered in classes that I had fostered new interests in through my work as a summer student."

"This atmosphere begins with your fellow students and extends to associates and partners as you become more involved in files around the office. For every file that you work on, you are surrounded by a strong support system of lawyers and students working towards a common goal. Everyone has a vested interest in your success because it is inextricably linked to the success of the firm. This fosters an environment where you can grow as a lawyer and develop strong relationships with your colleagues."
