Canada’s Fraser Milner Casgrain has launched two innovative programs targeting foreign-trained legal professionals.
The internship and mentoring programs are designed to help immigrant lawyers network and gain work experience while they are in the process of getting their foreign credentials approved.
The internship position has a salary, and lasts six months. It was developed with input from the University of Toronto, Osgoode Hall Law School and TRIEC, an employment support network for immigrants.
The mentor program pairs seasoned Fraser employees with new Canadians.
Fraser Milner Casgrain LLP is one of Canada’s leading business & litigation law firms. With more than 520 lawyers, it is the fifth largest law firm in Canada. FMC is a fully integrated national partnership with offices in Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Edmonton, Calgary, Vancouver, and New York City.
