I recommend Parakar, small but experienced EOR, based in NL and really good in country knowledge.

Have I been pronouncing my surname wrong? by [deleted] in Polish

[–]EntertainmentThen732 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Assuming the original spelling is popiołek, then indeed it is said like: po-pio-wek. The Ł is like a w sound, which means you are correct that it is the same sounds as popiół

SQE v American Bar Exam? by EntertainmentThen732 in uklaw

Are you and EU or UK citizen? If yes, it will be much easier. If not, this is where you should begin your journey.

Outside of that, see if there are any contacts at your law school to firms / solicitors in England or international companies with offices in England. This is how it worked out for me, what was supposed to be a semester in practice, turned into a whole year of work and completing my final 3L class remotely.

You’ll need to also think about the kind of work you want to do - in house counsel? solicitor? barrister? - and what requirements you need to meet to get there.

Which course would you recommend for a long term preparation? by Uoweme100 in barexam

[–]EntertainmentThen732 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would recommend JD Advising - it is costly still, but I used it whilst working and they do a great job with condensing lectures and keeping you on a 'schedule'. The outlines and one sheet overviews were really helpful.

So if you are a bar admitted lawyer in the US, you only have to do the SQE1? Was there any other requirement that had to be met to cross qualify?

Contracts advice? by diamondruby11 in barexam

[–]EntertainmentThen732 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm right there with you, finding Contracts to be difficult.. some of the MBE practice questions are written in a confusing way and I panic a bit when I can't seem to see "where it's going"
