Discussions and conferences are frequent and informal among everyone at the firm, and every effort is made to ensure that the client's interests are communicated to the student who may be discharging a specific assignment on their behalf. Students enjoy ample opportunity to become involved in a variety of areas, and are encouraged to seek out work in areas of particular interest to them. We encourage our students to manage their workload, recognizing the importance of outside activities and home life. Typically, each student's billable hours will vary from month to month throughout their articles. Students may be asked to travel, primarily within the province and Canada, and occasionally overseas.
All students have their own computer, with internet access.
Those with only modem access can use our Microsoft Terminal Server to dial into the system and access our entire network, regardless of the technology they are using. Premises Student Offices Unique among many firms, each student is assigned a private, exterior office with a commanding view. Although students rotate between practice areas, they retain their offices for the duration of their articles. Current premises We are currently in the process of reviewing our requirements for premises. If we elect not to move, we will be undertaking comprehensive renovations of the premises we have occupied for 30 years.
