Description

This subject covers the skills, practice areas and values required for students to be admitted to practise law as prescribed by the 'competency standards' set out in the Legal Profession Uniform Admission Rules 2015. This subject is part of the Practical Legal Training (PLT) program.

Students cover the law, practice, procedure and skills to enable them to conduct and advise on property transactions and commercial matters. Students draft relevant documents and analyse clients' problems in these areas of the law, as well as offering options and solutions.

Students then have one elective to choose from:

Banking and Finance Practice OR Planning and Environmental Law Practice.

Students delve into their chosen elective through a series of practical tasks, such as drafting, advising or advocacy. These tasks introduce students to specialist practice and provide further opportunities to apply the skills and competencies covered in the Commercial Law component of the subject.
