Second-Year
Students Invited to Saskatoon Reception March 10
MLT invites all second-year law students to
a reception and open house at our Saskatoon office on Wednesday
March 10 from 5:00 - 7:30 pm.
MLT Saskatoon is located in the Saskatoon Square
at 1500 - 410 - 22nd Street East. Drop by and get to know us.
Thank-you
for considering MLT.
Articling at MLT - Choosing
a firm for your articles is an important and exciting first step
in your legal career. You will want to seek advice from professors,
fellow students and practicing lawyers to select a firm that shares
your values and offers a rewarding professional environment. All firms
are not the same, and we know that MLT offers you something
special. We have a unique culture that emphasizes teamwork, cooperation
and mutual support. The sophistication of our practice and our
reputation for excellence flows directly from that culture. We work
hard to maintain
it.
The
focus for articling and summer students at MLT is learning. Students
are encouraged to take the time to learn
about the law and its procedures, and your work experience will
be varied.
There will be a good deal of legal research, but you will also
get broad "hands on" experience in everything from attending
trials, hearings and examinations for discovery as junior counsel,
to drafting correspondence, meeting with clients, developing
strategies for negotiations and preparing commercial agreements.
Your articling
experience will involve a rotation designed to expose you to
our major practice areas and as many of our lawyers and clients
as
possible. For the last number of years our Saskatchewan students
have participated
in one-month exchange programs with the Court of Queen's Bench
and
Court of Appeal. 
We assign a partner who has expressed
a particular interest in assisting young lawyers as a mentor
to each student. We also assign an associate
mentor to each student to serve as a resource person the student
also can turn to for advice and guidance. The mentors’ role is to
provide ongoing one-on-one guidance on office and practice procedures,
client relations, file management, and ethics and professional responsibility.
Mentors will also provide feedback on work performance and related
issues. Our goal is to provide a working environment in which students
feel comfortable working with and learning from all members of the
firm. Even though mentors are assigned to each student, our “open
door” policy encourages students to seek assistance from any
lawyer in the firm.
