OUR APPROACH TO LEARNING LEGAL PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILLS

We use a “case-based, problem solving” approach to help you to learn and to practise the skills needed to excel in legal problem solving, in practice and in the exam room.

For our purposes, a “case” is a situation, a set of circumstances, or a state of affairs about which a client seeks help from a legal practitioner, or a narrative in a problem question in a law examination.

We combine the traditions and techniques of common law judicial decision-making and a lifetime of law teaching and assessment to show you how to identify the legal issues arising in the case, and how to respond to them by using common law reasoning.
