Course summary

If you want to practise as a solicitor in England and Wales, the Legal Practice Course (LPC) remains a great choice if you have a Qualifying Law Degree or a Graduate Diploma in Law. After graduating from the course, you may qualify as a solicitor through the traditional route of a training contract. You now also have the option to qualify through the Solicitors Qualifying Examination pathway by claiming exemption from SQE1 and substituting qualifying work experience for a training contract. Westminster Law School has a well established reputation for the delivery of solicitors' vocational training, which will equip you with the skills and knowledge needed to be a successful 21st-century lawyer.
