The SQE2 assessment is a crucial milestone for aspiring solicitors in England and Wales, evaluating key legal skills across multiple practice areas. At Freedom Law Clinic, we offer a unique approach to SQE2 preparation by blending academic training with hands-on, real-world legal experience.

Comprehensive Legal Skills Assessed in SQE2

The SQE2 assessment tests a wide range of essential legal skills, including:

• Client Interview and Attendance Note/Legal Analysis
• Advocacy
• Case and Matter Analysis
• Legal Research
• Legal Writing
• Legal Drafting

These skills are assessed across various practice areas, such as:

• Criminal Litigation (including advising clients at the police station)
• Dispute Resolution
• Property Practice
• Wills and Intestacy, Probate Administration and Practice
• Business Organisations, Rules and Procedures (including money laundering and financial services)

Candidates must also be prepared to address underlying black letter law, including criminal liability, contract law, tort, land law, and trusts, while consistently applying professionalism, ethics, and consideration of potential taxation issues.
