The industry is thriving and continuing to look for skills offered from a range of backgrounds and different countries.

If you do not have a degree you can qualify by completing a Graduate Diploma in Law also known as the Common Professional Exam or a Law Conversion course which enables graduates with a non-law degree to ‘convert’ their existing education with a one year course.

Regardless of whether you have completed any sort of law degree or qualification, you will still be required to complete a Legal Practice Course. The LPC is the last compulsory academic qualification to become a solicitor. The qualification ensures trainee solicitors have the knowledge and skills they need. This course is offered all over the UK and takes one year full time. To be fully qualified as a solicitor you need to under take a two year ‘Training Contract’ which involves practice based training almost like an apprenticeship.

If you are a qualified solicitor within the EU then there is a range of rules you must follow if you wish to practice law within the UK. Otherwise EU member states are free to do business and offer legal services amongst themselves.

Qualified Solicitors from outside the EU who wish to practice Law in the UK must first get hold of a ‘Certificate of Eligibility’ from the Law Society of England and Wales and then sit the ‘Qualified Solicitors Test’. The QLT is a test which permits foreign solicitors to practice in the UK. To be considered for the QLT you must have over 2 years legal practice experience of which at least one year must have been gained by practising the law of England and Wales, supervised by a solicitor who has been admitted as a solicitor in England and Wales.

“Excerpt from the book…”
When we study law we are not studying a mystery but a well-known
profession. We are studying what we shall want in order to appear before
judges, or to advise people in such a way as to keep them out of court.
The reason why it is a profession, why people will pay lawyers to argue
for them or to advise them, is that in societies like ours the command
of the public force is intrusted to the judges in certain cases
