Program Description

The LLM Legal Practice program at the University of Westminster is designed to provide students with a professional legal qualification, allowing them to become solicitors or barristers. The program offers a combination of practical skills and academic learning that is designed to fully prepare students for real-world legal practice. Students are exposed to a comprehensive range of legal methodologies, with a focus on providing solutions to a range of different legal problems. Core modules cover areas like litigation, business law, and property law, as well as professional conduct and regulation. Additionally, students can choose elective modules to specialise in a specific area of law. The LLM Legal Practice program at the University of Westminster prioritises the application of knowledge over pure theory, placing a strong focus on developing practical legal skills, such as negotiation, advocacy, and legal writing. Bearing in mind the vitality of experiential learning, the University of Westminster offers opportunities for students to gain practical legal experience through the in-house Student Law Centre. This centre allows students to work on real legal cases under the supervision of a qualified solicitor, offering a unique and valuable experience. On successful completion of the LLM Legal Practice, students will be fully equipped with the critical academic knowledge and practical skills required in today's fast-paced legal sector.
