YOUR CAREER DEVELOPMENT

We devote a great deal of time and attention toward your training because we view you as more than our student, we see you as our successor.

You’re an important part of our team and we promise to do everything possible to accommodate your interests, build your expertise and keep you fully apprised of your progress.

The Manager of Professional Development plays a key role in our unwavering commitment to the development and future success of our students. This means that, in addition to ensuring that all files are fairly and evenly distributed, and to acting as a sounding board for any questions you might have, the Manager will oversee the lawyer evaluations you’ll receive after each assignment.

PRO BONO OPPORTUNITIES

FMC is committed to providing pro bono legal services to individuals and organizations who cannot afford a lawyer. We offer our students and lawyers a wide range of pro bono opportunities to develop their skills while contributing to our community.

OUR HIREBACK POLICY

Because we view each and every one of our students as prospective associates, and future partners, we strive to hire back as many as we possibly can once they’ve completed their programs. We’re proud to say that, on average, we hire 70% of our articling students as associates.
