Description of articling program Our articling program is designed to give articling students practical experience, allowing them to participate in negotiations, in the drafting of contracts and in pleading motions before the court, and giving them an opportunity to assist in a transaction.

As an articling student, you will be entrusted with responsibilities similar to those of our junior associates, enabling you to demonstrate initiative and leadership right from the start. After a brief orientation program, you will begin the first of three rotations of 8 weeks each chosen from our four practice groups - Business Law, Litigation, Intellectual Property and Employment and Labour Law. After completing your rotations, you will choose and notify us of a practice group where you will be applying for permanent employment as a lawyer.

During each rotation, you will be mentored by a lawyer from the Students Committee. During your articling period, you will have several informal evaluations as well as formal feedback at the end of each rotation.
