Nottingham Law School prospectus 2018/19

Albert Tapp Scotting Graduate Diploma in Law (full-time) “The pro-bono opportunities and career services at Nottingham Law School are extremely useful. The Legal Advice Centre was accessible and challenging, whilst providing me with the support of qualified solicitors during my work on real-life cases. I have taken on three legal cases throughout the year with the Legal Advice Centre. It has given me invaluable experience of interviewing clients, researching legal issues and providing advice. I received useful support and direction from the qualified, personable solicitors who run the centre. The actual centre is just a few meters from where most lectures take place and therefore a very convenient way to get that extra experience, without taking hours out of your week to travel”.
