Burchell Wickwire Bryson LLP is known for its great workplace culture; we work hard, we enjoy our work, and we respect and enjoy our colleagues at the firm.

As an Articled Clerk at Burchell Wickwire Bryson LLP, you will experience an in-depth and well-rounded exposure to all firm practice areas. We maintain a flexible program, tailoring the experience to the interests of both clerks and lawyers, in order to avoid the missed opportunities sometimes inherent in a rigid rotation model. Clerks are paired with a mentoring lawyer to ensure the articling year offers access to all aspects of the practice of law. Mentors also are advocates for our clerks, ensuring they receive rewarding work and assisting with workload management.

We augment our articled clerks' training with in-house seminars designed to highlight specific legal issues or developing trends. We strive to expose not only our articled clerks but all of our lawyers to ongoing professional development and sharing of expertise within the office.

With experience comes greater autonomy. As the articling year develops we encourage our lawyers to find opportunities for clerks to work directly with clients, and experience has shown that this is often the case indeed.

Burchell Wickwire Bryson LLP respects the significant burden faced by articled clerks in participating in and completing all work assignments associated with the bar admission course. We do what can to ease the stress accompanying this aspect of bar admission. Above all, we recognize our articled clerks' success as our success.
