Grow Your Legal Career with Us
At Montes Gendron Lawyers, we believe in investing in the future of the legal profession. That’s why we proudly welcome one articling student each year into our team.
Law Students
Start Your Legal Career with Real Experience.
We consider student placements as a chance to identify and support future talent, and for you to experience what it's like to be part of a dedicated legal team. We offer opportunities for students to gain practical exposure contributing to our legal work while developing the skills needed for a successful career.
Working alongside our lawyers, you will assist with legal research, document drafting, case preparation, and client-related activities, allowing you to gain confidence, improve your reasoning, and understand the flow of cases.
If you are ready to take your first steps in the legal field, contact us and explore the possibilities for professional growth here.

We offer more than just a position—we offer mentorship, courtroom experience, and an opportunity to truly grow. You’ll work alongside experienced lawyers, using your legal research and writing skills to support litigation efforts and take part in real cases. From motions and settlement conferences to preliminary inquiries and trials, you’ll be right in the heart of the action.
As your term progresses, we’ll encourage you to take the lead—independently managing files, preparing for hearings, and developing the confidence and judgment needed to succeed in litigation.
Articling and Summer Student Opportunities
We are always interested in hearing from talented law students who are eager to develop practical skills in trial advocacy and contribute to a busy litigation practice.
We are looking for passionate and thoughtful candidates who demonstrate strong legal research and writing skills, have a clear interest in criminal defence or family law, and are motivated to build their careers in Simcoe County. An empathetic, trauma‑informed approach to client care is essential.
Law students who wish to be considered for current or future opportunities are invited to submit a cover letter, resume, and law school transcripts to: admin@montesgendron.ca
