Summer Law Student Employment Program
The Parlee McLaws LLP Edmonton office has had a summer employment program for first year law students for many years. Our firm hires three or four law students who have completed their first year of law.
The program is designed to have the students work an eight-hour day. There is no billable time requirement. The primary objective is to introduce the students to the day-to-day practice of law and to Parlee McLaws LLP.
Our students are given a wide range of legal assignments similar in nature to those in our articling program. Senior lawyers are appointed as mentors to assist students through the three to four months of employment and give them exposure to our key practice areas. Informal performance evaluations are provided.
Our summer students are encouraged to participate in the many social events of our firm.
Hire Back Policy
Historically many of our summer students return as articling students and then continue their legal career as associate lawyers and partners of Parlee McLaws LLP.
Application Process
Our Articling Committee will interview applicants in February of each year. Resumes should be submitted to Parlee McLaws LLP in January of each year as follows:
Parlee McLaws LLP Barristers & Solicitors 1500 Manulife Place 10180-101 Street Edmonton, Alberta T5J 4K1
Attention: Ian L. Wachowicz
Please include undergraduate transcripts and transcripts that are available for the first term of first year law school.
