We are looking to hire up to four first year law students to work out of our Winnipeg office for the summer of 2023:

The objective of the TDS Summer Student Program is to provide law students with experience in the practice of law and an opportunity to get to know the firm's lawyers and practice areas.

Summer Students are usually assigned to four or five lawyers who practice in various areas of the law. Students assist in legal research, drafting documents, and preparations for court proceedings and other hearings.

We provide as many opportunities as possible for our Students to accompany lawyers to client meetings, pre-trial proceedings, hearings, and commercial transaction closings.


Our Summer Students are also invited and encouraged to participate in the firm's in-house education seminars and social functions throughout the summer.

Our goal is to ensure that our students are exposed to a variety of areas of law while gaining first-hand experience of what it is like to practice in a full-service law firm in Winnipeg.

We anticipate that interviews will be conducted at the end of February / beginning of March. The anticipated start date is May 8, 2023 and the salary is competitive with other Winnipeg summer student programs.

We thank all students who express an interest in our Summer Student Program; however, only those applicants selected for an interview will be contacted.

Core Values is that we value diversity and strive to reflect the communities we serve.

In that regard, we encourage anyone who identifies as an Indigenous person, a visible minority, a person with a disability, and/or a member of the 2SLGBTQ+ community to apply.

We also welcome you to self-identify your membership in these groups if you wish to do so.
