Legal Assistant / Law Clerk at Davies Ward Phillips & Vineberg LLP, supporting corporate transactions and preparing Ontario property registrations.
What I'm looking for
At Davies Ward Phillips & Vineberg LLP, I supported senior law clerks on corporate transaction files. I reviewed legal documents and correspondence, maintained filing systems, and updated transaction and asset lists.
I also prepared draft Ontario personal property registrations and compared post-registration searches with Ministry verification statements to identify discrepancies. I ordered title and status searches and reported the results to the legal team.
At Schwarz Law Partners LLP, I handled billing tasks, disbursements, and fee accuracy using PCLaw. I also reconciled trust and general bank statements and opened purchase, sale, and refinance files electronically.
I'm a licensed attorney in Turkey and have experience in legal support, document review, and file management in Canada. My earlier legal work included research, drafting, and representing clients in court proceedings in Turkey.
