WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
Klippensteins is looking for students who are committed and exceptionally talented ... and nice.
WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT?
Since our articling students are committed and highly talented, we want them to become deeply involved in our work
as soon as possible. We give students as much responsibility as they
demonstrate they can ably handle, increase their level of
responsibility over time, and back them up with close supervision.
 |
The result is that students not only carry out legal
research and drafting, but are guided into case strategizing, file
management, advocacy, client relations and financial aspects of
progressive practice management. We commonly involve students in
extended "think" sessions with lead counsel on files, in which they
help to explore and develop big picture strategy options and legal
theories.
Students invariably find most of our cases extremely interesting, and the inherently worthwhile nature of our justice-centred work provides some unique rewards.
