Toronto Student Programs

At Davis LLP, we are deeply committed to providing a first class education to our students. We seek to attract and train outstanding law students who will continue with the firm as associates and who will ultimately develop into partners.

In our rapidly expanding Toronto office we hired five summer students for the summer of 2011 and are pleased that all five of our 2010 summer students have returned to article with the firm in 2011-2012. We typically look to our summer students to fill our articling positions. We anticipate hiring five summer students for 2012.

Program Description

The firm is deeply committed to providing a first-class education to its students. We seek to attract and train outstanding law students who will continue with the firm as associates and who will ultimately develop into partners. Summer students are treated as articling students in all respects in that they are given the opportunity to pursue specific areas of interest or try a broad range of activities.

The size of our Toronto office enables our students to work directly with senior lawyers, as well as with associates at all levels of their careers. As part of our educational program, our lawyers offer a series of regular seminars covering many topics.

We believe that a student's time with the firm is primarily for learning. The student's principal/mentor therefore monitors the amount and type of work each student receives.

We maintain an open-door environment and encourage students to ask questions and get involved in the life of the firm.

Although students who summer or article with Davis work under supervision, every effort is made to give each student as much responsibility as he or she can comfortably handle.
