The Bianchi Presta Difference

We are a mid-size, full service law firm located in the heart of the City of Vaughan. Our firm's founding partners built this business from the ground up on the basic principle of putting the client first. Today, our team enjoys a fast-paced, dynamic work environment coupled with a collegial office culture - where our team works together by supporting one another to provide our clients a level of service that is second to none. Our continued success is, without a doubt, linked to our ability to attract and retain high-caliber individual lawyers, associates, students, and support staff, who embody our core-values as we continue to enhance and grow our team in various roles and capacities.

OVERVIEW

Bianchi Presta welcomes both first year and second year law students looking for an introduction to working in their chosen profession. While working under the guidance of our lawyers, our students will be provided the opportunity of a placement that prefers a hands-on approach.  

THE SUMMER STUDENT EXPERIENCE

This will help them come to understand what it is they like about the law, and assist them in choosing their direction of practice.
