OUR LAW CLERKSHIP PROGRAM
At Austin Giugni Martin, we are committed to investing in the growth of the next generation of legal practitioners. We have a long tradition of providing mentorship, training and practical experience to law students through our Law Clerkship Program.
Our program aims to foster a dynamic learning environment where aspiring legal professionals can further develop their skills and gain invaluable insights into the legal field. As part of our commitment to nurturing talent, law clerks at AGM have the opportunity to work closely with experienced solicitors, participating in real-world matters, legal research and client interactions. We recognize the importance of hands-on experience in shaping successful legal careers, and our Clerkship program is designed to offer a comprehensive understanding of the intricacies of legal practice. We take pride in cultivating a collaborative and supportive atmosphere that encourages law clerks to ask questions, seek guidance, and actively engage in meaningful work, preparing them for the challenges of the legal profession.
Many of our clerks transition into flourishing legal careers, securing positions at diverse firms across various practice areas. Additionally, some have been extended offers for graduate roles within our firm.
THE HIRING PROCESS
We announce opportunities for Law Clerk positions through university job portals as they arise. A commitment of at least 2 days per week is expected from our law clerks. If you are interested in applying for our upcoming recruitment cycle, please submit your resume and cover letter. Should we consider you for our selection pool, we will reach out to you. It's worth noting that many law clerks choose to stay with us throughout the duration of their degree(s), leading to potential extended wait periods between application rounds.
LAW CLErK TESTIMONIALS
Here's feedback from some of our former Law Clerks regarding their experiences with us:
“Kieran: I had the pleasure of working at Austin Giugni Martin as a Law Clerk...the role greatly improved my professional development and was a fantastic way to commence my career. Specifically, the Solicitors / Associates and Partners would often take significant time out of their day to ensure myself and other Law Clerks were adequately trained. Further, working at AGM exposed me to a wide variety of legal matters, ranging from Conveyancing, Wills and Estates, Family Law and Commercial Law. The wide breadth of practice areas enabled me to get an overview of how the ‘legal world’ works. As such, I would highly recommend AGM as a place of work for any Law Clerk, Law Graduate or otherwise.”
“I thoroughly enjoyed my time working as a law clerk at Austin Giugni Martin. The small and friendly team was excellent to work with and strongly supported the development of my legal professional skills. I gained useful experience in multiple practice areas and benefited from the mentorship and guidance of my supervisors. Actively contributing to different matters fostered a sense of responsibility and accomplishment, making my time at the firm both rewarding and personally enriching. ”
“I worked at AGM while completing my university degree. It was the ideal workplace for offering flexibility in balancing studies while providing exposure to many areas of law. All the lawyers are very approachable and genuinely committed to sharing their knowledge and mentoring junior staff.”
