LALM05 Professional Practice and Legal Services

The module will enable you to appreciate the different types of organisation that provide legal services and the funding arrangements available to clients to access those legal services. It also focuses in detail on how to apply the SRA Principles and Codes of Conduct 2019 and the Solicitors Accounts Rules 2019 to ethical and practical scenarios typical of those you would encounter in practice as a trainee solicitor. The importance of professional conduct and the high levels of integrity expected of solicitors is a key feature of the module, which will help you recognise potential conduct issues as they arise and apply the rules to ensure that you act appropriately. The module will also give you an understanding of the importance of adhering to the Solicitors Accounts Rules and enable you to apply the rules so that you are competent to be entrusted with client money and money belonging to third parties. You will also learn to apply the Financial Services regulatory framework which provides when and how solicitors can deal with investment products.

LAPM01A Business Law and Practice

Business Law & Practice (¿BLP¿) is designed to enable students to appreciate the nature of business media and business transactions, to be able to identify and deal with the steps in such transactions and gain experience through practical exercises from taking instructions through to completion of the advice. During the BLP course students will deal with the legal and commercial issues raised by clients wishing to trade as ¿sole traders¿, a ¿partnership¿ and as a ¿company limited by shares¿. Students will undertake realistic ¿trainee¿ tasks relating to establishing the correct business vehicle, personnel issues, raising finance, dealing with financial difficulties, taxation obligations, protection of the business vehicle, the regulation of commercial relationships and exit strategies. Business Accounts is integrated into the BLP Module to enable students to appreciate the basic principles of business accounting and be aware of how to interpret business accounts to ensure clients are appropriately advised in an number of commercial matters such as options for financing and insolvency. Students will learn to undertake tasks relating to the final accounts for a sole trader, a partnership and a limited company. Students will explore how the information contained in final accounts can be interpreted to provide a better view of the financial performance of a business (the topics making up Business Accounts will be taught after the relevant substantive law on the business entity in question has been covered. For example, Partnership Accounts will be dealt with once students have been introduced to the legal and commercial issues surrounding partnerships). By the end of the module students will have fully understood the Objectives and achieved the Learning Outcomes (which have been designed to meet the individual elements of the BLP Outcomes and the general outcomes, taxation and Professional Conduct and Regulation elements for the new LPC) set out below.
LAPM05 Commercial Dispute Resolution

There is no other practice area where a fundamental knowledge of the key principles of the other areas which you have studied all come into play. Be it contract law or company law, property law or business law, a general understanding of the fundamental principles of these other areas brings about a practice area which is interesting and varied. The subject matter of the cases in which you will be involved will be as wide and as varied as the clients which you will find yourself representing. Each client¿s aims and objectives are very different. You will therefore need to be aware not only of litigation as a means of resolving your client¿s dispute but also of other alternative forms of dispute resolution which are increasingly playing a vital role in this area. In view of the broad nature of the module, rather than provide an in depth analysis, the course will provide a general oversight of this area of practice such that you will develop your awareness of the variety of issues which may arise.
