Job Description

Our Qualities

Our firm is dedicated to delivering superior tax litigation results and experiences. Also, we aim to enhance the Canadian tax dispute system, making it more efficient, fair, and beneficial for all stakeholders.

We focus on three key qualities in every candidate for every role.

We look for people:

  1. who will thrive in our culture, which values eagerness for collaboration, commitment to personal responsibility, and an unquenchable thirst for continuous learning and improvement;
     
  2. who feel inspired to deliver truly superior client outcomes and experiences; and
     
  3. who want to contribute to our law firm’s greater purpose—improving Canada’s tax and litigation systems, a mission we advance through our ‘1% for Good’ initiative.
Your Qualities

You default to a positive attitude, most of the time. You see a “desired future state”, and you’re determined to reach it. Constant learning excites you. Clear, straightforward communication matters to you; you actively share your thoughts and listen intently, knowing the importance of both. You welcome honest feedback and view challenges as chances to improve.

Adapting energizes you. Given the complexities of tax litigation and our goal to achieve outstanding results, you thrive on change. The thought of doing things differently as we raise the bar keeps you engaged; a monotonous job doesn’t appeal to you.

You balance a strong personal accountability with a commitment to our collective success. You value the autonomy to excel on your own and the strength we harness as a team. You’re ready to push boundaries, both yours and the team’s, embracing the challenges of striving for excellence.

Accountabilities
  • Strategically Managing Evidence : Play a pivotal role in shaping case outcomes by meticulously capturing and organizing crucial evidence, ensuring we have the foundation to build compelling arguments.

  • Engaging with Key Stakeholders : Act as the essential bridge between our team and key partners such as clients, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), and the Department of Justice, facilitating smooth communication and collaboration.

  • Coordinating Discovery and Meetings : Organize critical meetings and discovery sessions, laying the groundwork for successful legal strategies and ensuring seamless execution. 

  • Supporting Legal Excellence : Work closely with our lawyers to guarantee that every litigation step and project progresses smoothly and adheres to strict timelines, contributing directly to our high standards of legal service.

  • Crafting Persuasive Communications : Utilize your expertise to write letters and submissions that clearly convey our positions and persuade stakeholders, amplifying our voice in important discussions.

    Qualification
  • Graduate from a recognized Canadian law clerk or paralegal program.
  • Proficiency in common software applications  (e.g., Word, Excel) and adaptability to new software 
  • English Proficiency: C1 or Higher
  • Ontario resident who possesses eligibility to work in Canada.

    Note: This role is an office-first role. Our ‘Office-First Hybrid’ approach highlights our current emphasis on in-person collaboration, especially during the first year. At this stage, we believe this strategy enables us to pursue our mission more effectively, which remains our top priority.

Job Description

Job Description

Job Description

We plan to hire a 2L summer law intern and start a journey that will give you three things.

First, we’ll provide you with training so that you’ll become a powerful litigator who’s also passionate about tax.

Second, we’ll give you the tools and technology that will help you think and work better.

Third, we’ll give you the support and environment that will help you find the best path to chase your purpose and potential.

Our Qualities

Our firm is dedicated to delivering superior tax litigation results and experiences. Also, we aim to enhance the Canadian tax dispute system, making it more efficient, fair, and beneficial for all stakeholders.

  3. who want to contribute to our law firm's greater purpose—improving Canada's tax and litigation systems, a mission we advance through our '1% for Good' initiative.
Your Qualities

When we picture you, we think of someone who is an independent thinker. You are analytical and witty. You are self-confident and humble. You do the right thing, always. You take pride in the effort and quality you bring to the things that you do.

You are interested in litigation, but you might not have a tax education or training. You are starting to get the idea that combining litigation and tax might give you a really interesting career, and you expect to take tax next year (you might even be thinking about participating in the Bowman Moot).

You default to a positive attitude, most of the time. You see a "desired future state", and you're determined to reach it. Constant learning excites you. Clear, straightforward communication matters to you; you actively share your thoughts and listen intently, knowing the importance of both. You welcome honest feedback and view challenges as chances to improve.

Qualification
  • Completion of your "2L" year from a recognized Canadian law school.

  • Proficiency in common software applications  (e.g., Word, Excel) and adaptability to new software.

Note: This role is an office-first role. Our 'Office-First Hybrid' approach highlights our current emphasis on in-person collaboration. At this stage, we believe this strategy enables us to pursue our mission more effectively, which remains our top priority.

The Right Place

You should think about the environment that is going to put you in the best position to chase your personal and professional potential. 

Investigate us, and every other law firm that might fit. Read career pages and promotional materials critically so that you can uncover which law firm is likely to invest in you and put you in the best position succeed.
