A quick definition of articled clerk:

An articled clerk is someone who works for a lawyer to learn how to be a lawyer. They have a special agreement called "articles of apprenticeship" that they must follow.

A more thorough explanation:

An articled clerk is a person who works for a solicitor to learn the profession. They are bound by articles of apprenticeship, which means they have a contract that outlines their duties and responsibilities.

For example, John is an articled clerk at a law firm. He works for the solicitor and learns about the legal profession. He has a contract that outlines his duties and responsibilities, such as attending court hearings and drafting legal documents.

Another example is Sarah, who is also an articled clerk. She is learning about the legal profession by working for a solicitor. Her contract outlines her duties and responsibilities, such as conducting legal research and assisting with client meetings.

These examples illustrate how an articled clerk is a person who works for a solicitor to learn the legal profession. They have a contract that outlines their duties and responsibilities, and they are bound by articles of apprenticeship.

@starfishies: have you had a date change at ndls?
Their admissions office is actually top tier, had a problem with a letter of rec that went out to all schools and they personally emailed me and made sure it got fixed. Rocketed them up my internal ranking fs
