Hi there, certainly, you would need to prepare and pass SQE. Please see here if there are any exemptions that might be applicable for you: www.sra.org.uk/become-solicitor/qualified-lawyers/sqe-exemptions/

@@futuresolicitor love u thanks

Is it possible

I qualified LLB and ve high court practice license since last 8 yr

Hi there, yes, you can cross qualify for English/Walsh law by passing SQE and practice English/Walsh law while you are in another jurisdiction.

Hi there, as mentioned under your another comment, this will depend on various factors and circumstances of SQE candidates. There is no one answer for all unfortunately. Some candidates will need more or less time. Please sign up to our trial course here: futuresolicitor.co.uk/sign-up/ You can reply to one of our emails about where you are with your legal education and I will be happy to provide more specific answer tailored to your circumstances.

Hi there, thank you for your interest. I would say this will greatly depend on each person's situation and background in terms of their education.If you have some legal education background it would take shorter, if you don't, I would say it might take longer. You can see one suggestion by us in the blog post: futuresolicitor.co.uk/how-to-prepare-for-the-sqe1-january-2025-exams-if-you-are-starting-now-july-2024/

Hi there, glad you enjoyed the video. We are not making the spreadsheet publicly available at this stage, as it need a lot of input from us to get it working. If you have any specific questions about SQE timeframes, please let us know.

Check it in SRA's website

Hi there, yes, you would need to go through SRA's application process for SQE.

Hi there, foreign qualified lawyers are automatically exempt from QWE. Please find more information on this here: www.lawsociety.org.uk/topics/international/how-to-become-a-solicitor-a-guide-for-international-lawyers-and-overseas-students

Glad they are useful!

Hi there, glad you like the videos. For exemptions, please refer to this page: www.sra.org.uk/become-solicitor/qualified-lawyers/sqe-exemptions/

Hi there, your work experience as an intern at a law firm can count if you were interning in legal services and not for example administration of the law firm. Legal research assistant would not count, as your QWE would have to be recorded by SRA registered lawyer. Please refer to this page for more details: www.sra.org.uk/become-solicitor/sqe/qualifying-work-experience-candidates/

@@futuresolicitor thank you for your response. I did go through the site but I am have a llb from India and LLM from US any experience I have had working in the legal space is with attorneys of these countries specifically. The legal research is also for an attorney in the US would that still count ? The link answers my questions but I’d like to know specifically for my case.

@@Vaiyrut If your role has not been recorded in a qualifying manner, your work experience will not count towards 2 years of QWE: "please make sure the solicitor of England and Wales or compliance officer for legal practice (COLP) we regulate are aware that they will need to confirm your QWE.". Source: www.sra.org.uk/become-solicitor/sqe/qualifying-work-experience-candidates/registering-qualifying-work-experience/ If you are a qualified lawyer or solicitor in another jurisdiction, you might be able to get an exemption. But you didn't mention anything about this in your post.

Hi there, glad you are enjoying the videos. I believe, the length of preparation will depend on many factors of a given SQE candidate, such as: is there any existing knowledge a candidate has, full or part time commitment to SQE preparation and many other factors. But what we are seeing is that candidates are spending 3-6 months on preparation or sometime more. We are working on a detailed study plan/guide which will hopefully help candidates and consider all these "it depends" factors and suggest 2-3 different length approaches on how to prepare. Please signup here to receive an update from us once this guide is published: futuresolicitor.co.uk/sign-up/

Hi there, we are not familiar with this topic, but please feel free to refer to gov.uk website.

Hi there, you would need to look into the nature of your work. Please refer to this page which inclined more information about the type of work you need to achieve QWE: www.sra.org.uk/become-solicitor/sqe/qualifying-work-experience-candidates/

With SQE exam passed, 2 years of QWE and successful SRA registration, you can practise law in England and Wales. But you would need to still find a firm to practise in and I believe you would need a work permit.

No, it would not count as QWE. The experience will need to take place under the supervision of SRA registered and qualified lawyer.

You will need to apply for an individual exemption. Check details here: www.sra.org.uk/become-solicitor/qualified-lawyers/sqe-exemptions/

@@futuresolicitor Thank you very much!

Hi there, thank you for getting in touch. Sorry to hear that you are having an issue. I will get in touch with you now through your registered email with us.

There are multiple factors involved in that process. We can't help with employment.

According to SRA, you will need to apply to an individual SQE2 exemption if you are an Advocate qualified in India. Please check out the article here for more details: futuresolicitor.co.uk/how-to-get-sqe-exemption-as-a-foreign-lawyer/

Hi,hopefully you doing well. I want to know which course is better either OISC or SQE?

@@FarwaMujtaba-ys5zl OISC is a training to become a regulated immigration adviser. On the other hand, SQE is the exam that is required to become a qualified lawyer in England and Wales. The decision will depend on what you want to achieve.

Hi,sir I want to ask is it necessary to do sqe along oisc?

Either I wany want to know SQE is different criteria and oisc is different?

Hi there, there are Transitional arrangements in place to move from LPC to SQE route. Unless you meet requirements for those arrangements, you can no longer pursue LCP route. More here: www.sra.org.uk/become-solicitor/legal-practice-course-route/transitional-arrangements/

I am Registered foreign lawyer here in the UK with one year of work experience abroad and one years work experience in the UK.. will I be exempted from SQE 1 and 2 ? Pls advise

Hi there, your experience as a graduate legal intern at a software company may qualify as QWE if it involved performing tasks that gave you direct exposure to legal work under the supervision of a solicitor or a suitably qualified legal professional. Please refer to this page for more details: www.sra.org.uk/become-solicitor/sqe/qualifying-work-experience-candidates/

Thank you

Since you graduated with a GDL in 2018, you have already completed a crucial step towards qualifying as a solicitor. The next step is to pass the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE), which has been introduced as the universal qualifying exam for all solicitors in England and Wales, replacing the Legal Practice Course (LPC). Our SQE preparation courses are designed to equip you with the knowledge and skills needed to pass both stages of the SQE. More details here: futuresolicitor.co.uk
