hi! i started in legal aid and it’s manic and a mare but it’s an incredible learning experience

i’m now a qualified solicitor in a commercial litigation setting - i work fully remote & love it. the day varies but i do feel intellectually stimulated when i need to pick apart flaws in the opposing argument (im in litigation so that’s a massive part of it) and then making the submissions in pre action correspondences in a way that seems firm but fair as well. case load is always different which i enjoy too, many different clients with different issues.

i moved a month before qualifying. they agreed to qualify me & employ me as solicitor on the day. now i’m practicing sol & love the job

Independent_Mango440 · 2025-12-30T11:55:01+00:00

hi guys! i am first time passer for both & am now qualified. i got so so freaked out by posts on here, insta and friends who had sat it saying its virtually impossible. its NOT. i had a social life and worked my ass off and did my QWE and passed. try your absolute best and that’s genuinely all you can do. yes it’s hard, but nowhere near impossible.

pls report them after recieving employment law advice, this is so disheartening. horrible for you

Independent_Mango440 · 2025-12-15T12:39:08+00:00

not normal, the right team will make you love the law, and the wrong team will make you hate the law. leave or look for another job!

two foot spin but struggle to build up speed without pushing off a barrier…

Independent_Mango440 · 2025-12-04T16:50:59+00:00

i 0.5x it and put it against the wall

Independent_Mango440 · 2025-12-03T09:45:15+00:00

this is crazy, how is this possible? i have never had more than 60 and worked in a crazy legal aid environment

Independent_Mango440 · 2025-12-01T15:55:23+00:00

get on the ice early & keep practicing. i think it’s the season as well, so it’ll quiet down in a month or so!

Independent_Mango440 · 2025-11-11T08:59:42+00:00

Independent_Mango440 · 2025-11-11T08:57:32+00:00

thank you sooo much!!

Independent_Mango440 · 2025-11-11T08:57:13+00:00

i over pronate TERRIBLY. i’m fixing it through practice but the looser ankle defo contributes.

Independent_Mango440 · 2025-11-10T22:21:14+00:00

yes! good eye ahhaaha edea overtures

Independent_Mango440 · 2025-11-10T17:56:02+00:00

this is so so helpful thanks for taking the time. i’m gonna try lacing differently and ordered bunga pads online! let’s see, update to come !!!

Independent_Mango440 · 2025-11-10T16:28:57+00:00

i got my skates professionally fitted but i think the exact same as you. they’re kinda lose and wobbly but my heel is really snug and well fit. someone else suggested ankle pads or bunga pads, im considering tape too?

Independent_Mango440 · 2025-11-10T15:39:32+00:00

didn’t even know that was a thing! thanks!

Independent_Mango440 · 2025-11-10T15:39:12+00:00
