Toni Pascale is excited to be joining Devry Smith Frank LLP (“DSF”) as an articling student following her completion of her Juris Doctor (J.D.) from the University of Ottawa’s Faculty of Common Law. Toni also holds an Honour’s Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts in English Language and Literature from Queen’s University.
During law school, Toni gained invaluable experience summering at a boutique family law firm in British Columbia which helped her to develop her passion for family law. This past year, she was a student caseworker with the Pro Bono Students Canada’s Family Justice Centre where she helped to provide unbundled legal services to residents of Ontario who were unable to afford a lawyer.
Toni was actively involved at the University of Ottawa. In her first year of law school, she competed in the Walker Health Law Moot where her and a partner argued a medical malpractice case and were awarded first place. She completed an internship at the National Association of Women and the Law assisting with feminist law reform in Canada and also acted as the Reproductive Justice Workshop Coordinator with the Women’s Legal Education and Action Fund where she designed and executed workshops to high school students on their reproductive rights. She also was the cohort representative for the Health Law Student’s Association.
Outside of law, Toni enjoys spending time with her cat, travelling, and going to spin classes.
