Below is some general information about our Toronto Articling Student Program:

We are a fast-paced and growing Family Law firm. At Separy Law P.C., students are a key part of our support system and we want students to be fundamental members of our team who thrive in a fast-paced environment and eventually become Associate Lawyers. We look for students with strong work ethic, intellect, passion, energy, and attention to detail.

At Separy Law P.C., we invest in our students. Our students are given first-hand experience and responsibility, acting as a liaison between clients and Associates, gaining relevant experience in all areas necessary to build a solid practice. At Separy Law P.C., we believe that all of our students must “learn the ropes” within a spectrum of responsibility which increases throughout the articling program. From learning how to attract clients by answering calls, booking potential clients, to conducting comprehensive client interviews, drafting documents, and attending Court with Court permission, our articling students gain a range of experience allowing them to confidently and independently practice as a Toronto family lawyer in their first year as an Associate Lawyer at our firm.

The first week of articling at Separy Law P.C. will be a dedicated training package to familiarize you about the administrative aspects within our law firm such as policies, procedures and our extensive precedent database.
