At Bratty and Partners, LLP we view articling students as the future of our firm. With this in mind, we aim to make articling a challenging and rewarding experience. Our students are encouraged to take on as much responsibility as they feel they can handle, and we work to integrate them into the team environment and flow of our practice.

The nature of student work varies. We do not expect students to do an extensive amount of research; instead, we focus on learning through practical experience, and personal guidance. Students work on files in tandem with each of the firm's lawyers, and their contact with clients is extensive. There are opportunities for students to take lead rolls in particular matters, based on their interests and comfort levels.

Throughout the articling experience, students can expect strong support from the firm. At the beginning of the articling term, each student is assigned a mentor. The mentor - one of our senior lawyers - will offer guidance throughout. Students and their mentors may discuss such matters as workload, variety of work, and relations with other lawyers, in addition to legal issues. Furthermore, all of our lawyers take an active interest in student work, and make themselves available for questions and advice.
