Articling Agreement

In accordance with The Legal Profession Act and The Law Society Rules, an applicant for admission to the Law Society of Manitoba as an Articling Student must enter into an Articling Agreement with a Principal, on a prescribed form. A Principal is an approved lawyer who has, for at least three years, carried on practice in Manitoba and meets the criteria. Prospective Principals are responsible for applying to the chief executive officer for approval to act as a principal. Only approved Principals or their delegates may offer an articling position to a student. Students should ask prospective Principals if they have been approved before finalizing their contractual arrangements.
