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!

This is an excellent resource for SQE preparation, offering over abundant videos, mock exams, diagrams, and clear notes. Personally, it greatly helped me pass the SQE, with insightful content and confidence-boosting mock exams. I highly recommend it for SQE candidates. The course simplified complex legal concepts, and the experienced instructor provides on-screen legal text, using real court cases for illustration. The option to pause and review content was really helpful. Overall, it’s a concise, accessible, and highly recommended resource for SQE success.

I highly recommend it!
