What is a summer clerk?

Summer clerks are law students who join us for 12 weeks over summer to gain insights into the day-to-day operations of a law firm, understand various practice areas, and develop professional skills. Our summer clerkship is a temporary, paid position that provides law students with practical experience in a legal environment.

What will I be doing during my clerkship?

During your 12 weeks, you will complete two rotations within our practice teams. Typically, you will get to join workflow meetings with your team, shadow client meetings, attend court, undertake research and assist in drafting proceedings & other relevant legal documentation. As well as all things legal, you will be invited to join in firm social events and activities.
