,Introducing Emond
In 1978, Professor Paul Emond published the first Emond casebook. It was a casebook on Real Estate Law, and
was soon followed by Administrative Law and Constitutional Law casebooks that were used for classes at the
University of Toronto and Osgoode Hall Law School. More than 35 years later, Emond Publishing is one of the
leading publishers of casebooks used in law schools across Canada. In addition to publishing texts for
paralegals, law clerks, and legal practitioners, Emond now also offers exam support resources for candidates
preparing to write the Ontario licensing exams.
The Emond Exam Prep course has been in operation since 2006. At that time, the LSO had recently eliminated
the preparatory bar admissions course that once preceded the Ontario licensing exams. Candidates were faced
with the overwhelming task of learning 1600 pages of material in six weeks, without guidance or support.
Osgoode law professors Stephanie Ben-Ishai and Poonam Puri created the Emond Exam Prep course (originally
called CanBarPrep) to offer support to candidates seeking substantive instruction and assistance during the
exam preparation process.
Emond has managed the Emond Exam Prep course since 2013, expanding the scope and depth of content, and
offering it online year-round. In recent years, it has become apparent that many candidates would benefit from
a resource that clearly summarizes the key facts and strategies that will help them prepare effectively for the
licensing exams. For this reason, we have published the Comprehensive Bar Exam Preparation Manual, and
made it available to Emond Exam Prep candidates and the public alike. We hope it helps you on the road to
success.
