LAPM09 Advanced Commercial Law
Commercial law is the fastest growing and most internationally orientated area of legal practice and covers a wide range of legal issues affecting businesses of any size. This elective focuses on commercial law with special emphasis on intellectual property, e-commerce and mergers and acquisitions. Commercial law covers a wide range of legal issues affecting businesses from employment law to company law and from marketing agreements to avoidance of liability within contract law. By covering the major issues in these practice areas, once the elective is completed, students will be able to demonstrate their knowledge and understanding of commercial law and employ the skills they have acquired in these practice areas so far, whilst continuing to build upon and develop these skills. By setting the elective in a practical context, after its completion, students will be able to use the legal knowledge and skills they have acquired and apply the necessary procedures and behaviours appropriate to each client and each transaction or matter. The students will learn to undertake tasks relating to aspects of the law relating to the affairs of a firm¿s business clients in both a contentious and non-contentious context. They will gain an understanding of the needs of the business client by examining the substantive law covering the commercial field. In addition, the students will become aware of business practices and the practical implications of the substantive law for those practices and gain an understanding of the typical needs of a commercial client and the particular needs of an individual client. The practical nature of the elective which is based upon a transactional model, will involve students undertaking tasks and being encouraged to discuss issues and highlight problems as they arise, therefore allowing students to be able to identify the overall nature of the transaction, plan and progress that transaction or matter through a series of steps and decisions, and where appropriate, to draft relevant documentation.

LAPM33 Solicitors Accounts
The Solicitors¿ Accounts module aims to impress upon students the importance of adhering to the Solicitors Accounts Rules (the Rules) and to give students a thorough understanding of solicitors¿ accounts, such that they are competent to be entrusted with client money. Students will complete realistic exercises that require them to record all the ledger entries that would occur on a typical file, using a double entry bookkeeping system that accords with the Rules. This will entail repeatedly identifying client, office and controlled trust money and the steps that must be taken when handling this money. Students will record the financial transactions that are typical of civil litigation (including conditional fee agreement), property, probate, company and commercial work. Students will also practice preparing completion statements. As well as these transactional exercises, students will encounter stand alone exercises in which they are required to apply the Rules and identify an appropriate course of action. Students will be given an intensive introduction to Solicitors¿ Accounts in the foundation course, with 2 LGS and 2 SGS. This is followed by a further 3 LGS and 3 SGS. Ordinarily a topic will be introduced in LGS before being explored in SGS the following week. As well as these discreet sessions, students will also be required to identify SAR issues as they arise in the Core Practice Areas and deal with these in an appropriate manner. In particular, Solicitors¿ Accounts will be regularly encountered in PLP, Civil Litigation and Probate. Students will have a mock assessment in Solicitors¿ Accounts which will be marked and returned to students, to enable students to reflect on their performance before the assessment.
