Course Summary

Our unique LLB Law (Senior Status) is designed for those with an existing degree and provides comprehensive training in law over a concentrated two year period. The course gives you exemption from the academic stage of training for the legal profession, allowing you to proceed to the Bar Professional Training Course or the Legal Practice Course. At Essex, we teach the law that matters, with a concern for the demands of justice and commerce. You learn to analyse the law of England and Wales in relation to its European and international frameworks and to apply it in practice.
