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 study the practice area of Civil Litigation in NSW through the management of a civil case from commencement to determination, including drafting, advising and problem-solving.
Students then undertake two electives choosing one from each of:
Criminal Law Practice OR Family Law Practice
AND
Consumer Law Practice OR Employment and Industrial Relations Practice
Students delve into their chosen electives 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 Civil Litigation component of the subject.
