It expedited my career in succession law by a decade
Craig Gregson TEP, LLM Graduate
I think my favourite thing about the study that I've done at the College of Law is the different experiences of all the lecturers, and tutors. Their practical experience that they were able to give us in terms of the content and was always so helpful and insightful.
