Legal Practice Course (LPC)

The Legal Practice Course (LPC) is a crucial postgraduate program for aspiring solicitors in England and Wales. It provides practical training in various legal skills needed for a career in law, such as drafting documents, conducting client interviews, and understanding areas like property and criminal law. Typically lasting one year, the course combines theoretical knowledge with hands-on experience to prepare students for the role of a solicitor. Upon completion, graduates must then undertake a period of training known as a training contract at a law firm before qualifying as solicitors.
