Articling at Farris

Farris has a long history of practising law with great success at all levels, and we are dedicated to advancing that tradition through the attraction and development of the students who are our future associates and partners.

We believe that our student program is second to none in Vancouver in a number of significant ways, and we invite you to review our website and discover the features that distinguish us from our esteemed peers.

Identifying the qualities that represent the right "fit" – for student and firm alike – is a highly collaborative process requiring thoughtful consideration of shared values, opportunities, expectations and resources. We identify with your interest in securing articles with the firm that best fulfills your long-term career objectives, because it is as vital to our future as it is to yours.

The information in this site will answer many of the questions you may have about our student program, clients, culture, people, and work.

Please contact us with your enquiries and comments. We welcome the opportunity to help you assess your career direction.

“The greatest advantage of articling at Farris is that students have the independence to direct their articles towards the areas of law that most interest them.

Because Farris does leading work in many different areas of law, students can pursue diverse aspects of the law, or narrow the focus of their articles to more specific types of work.”
