I had an amazing summer at Clark Wilson. Coming into law school, it was important to me to work somewhere with strong mentorship, opportunities, and support. That is exactly what I got at every step of the way. The firm culture is one of inclusivity, collegiality, and teamwork. With the support of lawyers, staff, and my cohort and the resources available to me, I felt well-equipped to succeed and grow with the firm. The broad range of practice areas also made for a comprehensive and well-rounded experience. I had the opportunity to write blog posts, draft agreements, attend a shareholder meeting, attend discoveries, and deliver a presentation at a practice group meeting. I look forward to returning to Clark Wilson for my articles next year.
