Law

ABOUT US

As a society dedicated to helping all students, regardless of their degree, to develop and fulfil their law aspirations. We aim to provide a platform on which any student can explore their passion for the law, enhance their legal skills, and strive towards their dream career.

Throughout the year we host a wide range of events, ranging from our national award winning Law Fair, networking sessions, career talks, legal debates, and much more. In order for our students to develop their skills, our various skills officers organise a range of opportunities which focus on specific legal skills. From public advocacy in Mooting, to intimate conversational and teamwork skills in Negotiation and Client Interviewing, we provide the chance to improve them through a series of training sessions.

It’s not all about law though--we also hold a range of social events to appeal to everyone. From pub socials to annual dinners or even day trips, you can be certain that there will always be a way for you to take a break from your studies and have a little fun.
