I found the Future Solicitor to be incredibly easy to use and extremely useful. The way the material was broken down into single points of the specification, accompanied by clear explanations and helpful diagrams, made it easy to engage with and remember. It was exactly what I needed and allowed me to cover more ground in my studies. I truly believe that traditional institutions will have to move towards this model of teaching to effectively prepare students for the SQE.

Excellent videos – it really helps to break up the SQE topics, and the diagrams are super helpful!

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!
