"I began my articling experience with Clark Wilson LLP as a summer student in 2005. Almost immediately, I knew Clark Wilson LLP was the right firm for me. I soon became immersed in the everyday affairs of the firm. I received quality work from lawyers who took the time to explain the background of each matter, ensuring that all tasks were meaningful. Whether I was in my litigation rotation or solicitor rotation, my assignments were both varied and stimulating. While the work can be demanding and stressful at times, everybody at Clark Wilson LLP is courteous to one another. I was especially impressed with the amount of client contact that I was exposed to."

Clark Wilson LLP does not micromanage their students, however, there is a dedicated student committee readily available to answer any questions and provide guidance. The student program allows students to be a part of all aspects of firm life. Outside of the office, students can participate in a number of firm sponsored sports teams, fundraisers, and social events. I believe this speaks to Clark Wilson LLP’s "work/life balance" motto.

Clark Wilson LLP is a great place to article and sharpen your legal, business and networking skills.
