Amber LeBlanc

Amber LeBlanc is an articling student in Gowling WLG’s Waterloo office.

Amber holds a JD from the University of Ottawa, where she graduated cum laude. She was an editor for the Ottawa Law Review during all three years of law school and sat on its senior board as the Communications Manager in her last year. She was also a teaching assistant for Introduction to Public and Constitutional Law, and a peer mentor for 1L students.

Prior to law school, Amber completed a Bachelor of Science at the University of Waterloo, and a Bachelor of Arts in criminology at Wilfrid Laurier University. She worked full-time at a local healthcare clinic as an office supervisor and practitioner assistant while completing her criminology degree and has carried her customer service skills and passion for helping people into her work as a law student.

As a summer and articling student with Gowling WLG, Amber has developed a strong interest in tax law, and particularly in working with charities, not-for-profits, and other tax-exempt entities. She looks forward to learning more about this type of work over the duration of her articles.
