What is the assignment?
You choose a subject for your assignment in agreement with your supervising tutor. Your assignment must be 15,000 words in length and you will receive supervision from your tutor. As the choice of subject for your assignment is yours, you could, for example, choose an active legal matter or case being handled by your firm or set of chambers and thus really add value to the vocational nature of your LL.M. Equally you could choose a subject outside of your current area of expertise – perhaps in an area of practice in which you have aspirations. This must be approved by your tutor.
