Emond Harnden is the premier labour law firm in the nation's capital. Since its founding in 1987, Emond Harnden has grown in size to twenty-one lawyers - the largest team of employer advocates in Eastern Ontario. Including professional researchers, a law clerk, a librarian, an office administrator, and support staff, our firm provides articling students with the resources and training they will need to excel in the practice of law. While preserving all of the great aspects of its small firm origins, Emond Harnden has developed a "blue chip" clientele. Students looking to combine the benefits of articling at a boutique labour and employment law firm with the challenges and advantages of providing legal services to prestigious, high-profile clients should consider articling at Emond Harnden. Students will also have the opportunity to do pro-bono or fee-reduced work for a variety of not-for-profit agencies in the Ottawa area. Participation in the many other varied activities through which the firm gives back to the community will add another important dimension to your articling experience at Emond Harnden. From Academics to Practicing Law: A Supportive and Structured ProgramExposing students to the many facets of labour and employment law, our structured articling program is a genuine apprenticeship. Students at Emond Harnden learn by doing. Students accompany lawyers to arbitrations, collective bargaining sessions, or labour board hearings. They may round out their experiences by drafting pleadings and delivering final arguments. But, of course, no articling term is complete without experiencing the joys of research and drafting memoranda. Click here for a list of practice areas. Presenting recent developments, our in-house seminar series allows students to learn substantive law while discussing files and receiving practical advice from our lawyers. This collegial environment encourages articling students to graduate from the academics of law school to conducting files and managing client relationships. Though guided by their principals and the chair of our articling committee, students may learn more from Emond Harnden's open-door policy. Encouraged to seek mentoring from any of our lawyers, articling students will discover a wealth of practical information and immeasurable experience.
