Tom is a barrister who has fully integrated his unique methodology on transforming the otherworldly legal terms and complex immigration-related legal situations into the most graspable contents and comprehensible solutions.

I’d be expecting from this SQE preparation course something as barrier-melting as from his works on the clients’ end in terms of situation-analysing, solution-proposing and re-designing information into the most processable forms to all minds in general!

Vish Vishvanath

Wow, brilliantly organized course that somehow makes you feel like a genius after having done each section – everything is clearly explained and super insightful, it’s like the Khan Academy for SQE, and all the content is easy to handle at whatever pace you want to go.

As a qualified lawyer trained in another jurisdiction interested in the SQE route, Future Solicitor offers exactly the services I was looking for! The versatile platform is easy to navigate and it allows users to move easily between modules depending on your needs. For instance, in my own Civil Law jurisdiction the fields of Criminal Law or Tort Law are taught distinctively differently to how these areas work in the English Common Law tradition, so I knew I needed to devote more time to that course than to Public Law or Dispute Resolution. I also found the study notes and practice exams very helpful to retain key information —especially when it came to memorising salient titles and sections. I am certain the platform will prove to be a key resource for both UK-based degree-level students and foreign lawyers trained in other jurisdictions who seek to be qualified in the English legal market!
