Alexander Raymond Schram was born in 1999 in Oshawa, Ontario. He returned to the city following law school and joined our office as an Articling Student in September of 2024.

Alexander attended both elementary school and high school locally at Pierre Elliott Trudeau Public School and Monsignor Paul Dwyer Catholic High School. Prior to law school, Alexander attended York University Glendon College from 2017 to 2021, graduating with a bilingual Bachelor of Arts degree in History, with Honours. Alexander then attended the University of Windsor Faculty of Law and the University of Detroit Mercy School of Law from 2021 to 2024, earning a Juris Doctor in both Canada and the United States.

Alexander was previously employed under the Federal Student Work Experience Program as a support clerk with Employment and Social Development Canada from 2019 to 2024. There, he was exposed to a myriad of cases involving vulnerable individuals from all walks of life seeking financial assistance from the Federal Government. Alexander has applied the lessons and experiences he acquired in that role into his practice and intends on using his legal education to provide access to justice and empower underrepresented individuals.

While attending the University of Detroit Mercy School of Law, Alexander worked at the Detroit Mercy Veterans Law Clinic throughout the school year. In his role, Alexander provided access to justice for military veterans, representing them in disability cases and related matters before the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, seeking veterans benefits for service-connected disabilities.

Alexander looks forward to gaining extensive experiential training while articling with Creighton Law LLP, including experience in Family Law, Ontario Tribunals, Business and Corporate law, Immigration Law, as well as Wills and Estates.

Prior to law school, Alexander had volunteered as a Football Coach with his former high school, winning multiple regional championships with the program. He anticipates returning to coaching locally at both the high school and local rep. level, and becoming involved in other local volunteering opportunities.

Outside of the office, Alexander loves spending time with his friends, family and pets, as well as cheering on his favourite sports teams.
