The Young Lawyers and Chambering Pupils Sub Committee is organizing a series of talks for the benefit of young lawyers and pupils. The objective of the talks is to expose young lawyers and pupils to areas of law, procedure and practice that are common and which they will likely come across in practice later. It is hoped that this series will provide young lawyers and pupils with basic knowledge and understanding of general law and the basic skills of lawyering. This webinar is one of the initiatives towards that objective.
This webinar will cover the following issues of interest:-
- What is a lawyer?
- What is a competent lawyer?
- Skillset of a competent lawyer
- Attitude of a competent lawyer
- The importance of being a competent lawyer
