Lawyers

We have a busy practice and we always welcome applications from lawyers with a demonstrated interest in practicing in our established practice areas in Ottawa.

Presently, we are seeking to hire two associates, with a view to increasing our talent base in the following areas:

Staff

We are fortunate to have an excellent group of assistants, clerks and administrative staff, and we are always looking to add experienced individuals with excellent qualifications to our team so that we can continue to provide our clients with exemplary service.

Articling Students

Our articling program is the heart of the firm’s long-term planning. We view incoming articling students as future partners, not as fungible assets.  If you are interested in building a successful, long-term career in Ottawa, we are the firm for you.

The lawyers at the firm take mentoring students and new lawyers seriously and we are proud of the fact that the students we hire have gone on to become important members of our firm.  Two-thirds of our current lawyers and two-thirds of our partners began their legal careers as students at the firm.

Summer Law Students

If you plan to build a career in Ottawa, we want to hear from you.  We do not have a regular summer student program but we will hire law students entering their second or third year of law school that have excellent qualifications and are committed to building a practice in Ottawa.
