Before joining Osler, I heard about the Firm’s extensive (but fun) training program, esteemed (but approachable) lawyers, and challenging (but rewarding) array of files. I can earnestly say that Osler strikes a perfect balance across all fronts. In the legal world, I believe you’d be hard-pressed to find another employer that sits comfortably in the middle of all three conceptual Venn diagrams.
While students invariably contribute substantively to the Firm, many lawyers I’ve worked with have gone out of their way to make these contributions a pedagogical experience. It is clear Osler invests in its students, and I’m proud to be one of those investments. Despite working remotely during the summer, I developed several close relationships with my colleagues here, and I genuinely can’t wait to return as an articling student!
