Owen Bethune (Posted September 18, 2025)

Hello, My name is Owen Bethune. I am moving to the area following graduation this spring. I am in search of an articling position for the 2026-27 term. I am completing my final year of law school at the University of Ottawa. Prior to law school, I graduated with the President’s Gold Medal for achieving the highest academic average in my program. I have worked the last two summers in the public sector. Through coursework, I have developed a strong legal foundation. I have a team-oriented and collaborative mindset, with excellent dependability. I am bilingual and can draft in both official languages. I am interested in all types of solicitor work and can be reached at obeth015@uottawa.ca. Thank you, Owen. 

Basil Ugochukwu (Posted September 17, 2025)
I am an internationally trained lawyer pursuing the Ontario licensing through the Law Practice Program (LPP) at Toronto Metropolitan University. The LPP is a Law Society of Ontario initiative with two components: a 4-month practical training component (August to December) and a 4-month Work Experience component (January to April). LPP Candidates like me have the same status and rights of appearance as articling students. During the training component which I am currently undertaking, I will manage multiple matters, conduct practical legal research, draft agreements and retainer letters, interview clients, argue motions, conduct negotiations, docket time, manage a Virtual Law Firm’s trust account, etc. This component is preparing me to hit the ground running, and satisfies all of the core competency requirements demanded by the LSO. I am looking for a Work Experience placement in the Kitchener/Waterloo region for Winter 2026, i.e., January to April 2026. An LPP Work Experience employer only needs to focus on integrating me into their existing practice. My email address is bugochukwu@torontomu.ca.
