Law

Law.5069

Whether you want to be a lawyer or not, a law degree gives you plenty of career options to choose from. Many law students choose to pursue a career in law, others do not. It is your choice.

As an aspiring lawyer, a career in law offers you an amazing array of opportunities domestically and internationally.

Your choice of legal career very much depends on your motivations and values be they your earning potential working for a city firm, being driven by equality and fairness and access to justice, working for the government or other public body, or working in-house?

Some students do not pursue the LPC or BPTC and choose an LLM instead.
