Solicitors Exam


Kristina

Has anyone taken the Solicitors Exam with US JD & US bar? I am licensed in VA (for almost a year now) and I was wondering if I need 2 years of experience after I took the bar or whether experience during law school would be sufficient? Also, what is the best test provider to take the test with? Any help would be much appreciated!

What you can do is take the QLTT examination to qualify with Law Society in the U.K. The exam, although comprehensive, is completely reasonable. I highly recommend taking some type of prep course to prepare for the exam.

You will need two years of PQE, and any practical experience that you might have gained while still at law school will not count for these purposes; this is set out in the relevant regulations of the Law Society, which also contain further requirements relating to the precise nature of the PQE that you will have to demonstrate in order to be eligible to take the QLTT (e.g., it must be in three different areas of the common law and comprise contentious as well as non-contentious matters). Check www.lawsociety.org.uk for further info.
