I cannot recommend this course highly enough. Each of the many detailed legal issues was explained with great clarity, however complex it was. Each legal point is outlined by this very experienced lawyer, and the actual wording of each part of the law is written on the screen as he speaks. Examples from decisive court cases are used to clarify each point of law.
It was especially helpful to be able to pause or repeat each point to fully absorb and record it in my notes.
Altogether, a clear, accessible explanation of every point in this extensive field.
A highly recommended course!

The Future solicitor SQE prep course was extremely easy to use. The layout is great and optimised in a way that also makes it phone friendly so you can truly access it anywhere! The course keeps your progress and tells you how long each section should take allowing you to plan your leaning. The colourful diagrams really helped with memorising processes for me! Highly recommend!
