I followed the two-year diploma program, Law Clerk/Legal Assistantand am able to do independent legal work under the general direction of a lawyer. Law Clerks perform routine legal and administrative duties and assist lawyers by performing a variety of functions.
The responsibilities of the graduate include responsibility for real estate files, maintaining corporate documents and filings, drafting court documents and correspondence, preparing briefs for trial, interviewing clients or witnesses, and compiling evidence and documents for trial. Law Clerks may appear before administrative tribunals and certain courts.
I can deal with different types of law: real estate, family, landlord and tenant, corporate, civil procedures and intellectual property. The Law Clerk requires the ability to pay attention to detail, and to work under pressure. |
