Cook Roberts is committed to growth, through the careful selection of intelligent, hardworking, experienced lawyers to complement the firm’s existing practice areas. The firm is particularly interested in attracting lawyers with experience in new and developing areas of the law. Our firm philosophy is based on teamwork. Accordingly, an experienced legal assistant works in partnership with each lawyer in the firm. This philosophy also extends to teams of lawyers and legal assistants working cooperatively if the nature of a case so requires. It is also our firm’s philosophy to encourage the referral of files amongst lawyers so as to ensure that each case is handled by the lawyer with the requisite level of experience and skill, promptly and in a cost-effective manner. In addition, our lawyers freely share their ideas and knowledge either informally or in a formal team paradigm so as to utilize the firm’s aggregate skill and experience to the greatest effect for the benefit of our clients. We offer competitive salaries, a full benefits package and paid covered parking immediately adjacent to our building. Lawyers interested in joining the firm are invited to submit inquiries in strict confidence to: Ralston S. Alexander, Q.C.
Cook Roberts is committed to providing law students with opportunities for practical experience. Accordingly, we offer work for summer students, as well as opportunities for co-op students, and articling students. We currently engage, on an ongoing basis, a combination of articling student(s) and/or co-op student(s) and/or summer student(s). A number of the existing members of our firm had their first contact with us as either summer, co-op, or articling students. This reflects our commitment to utilize our working relationships with our students to hand-pick those whom we consider to be excellent prospects for the future. Applicants are invited to submit letters of application including, without limitation, a resume, transcripts of academic achievement, samples of legal writing and references, in strict confidence to: John C. Adams
