• LAA210 Family Law: Parents & Children

• LAA393 Advocacy

  The Advocacy module aims to introduce students to the knowledge and skills of advocacy (i.e. being an advocate in court). It will cover both oral and written advocacy. It will develop the ability of students to: ¿ research the law and prepare a case as an advocate (applying law to facts); ¿ understand basic rules of professional ethics for advocates; and ¿ develop advocacy skills, including: a. making oral arguments to a judge; and b. making written arguments to a judge. Students would find this module helpful if they are aiming to become a lawyer or to enter a graduate role requiring the presentation of persuasive arguments. The materials will be based on legal topics studied within years 1 and 2 at Swansea University, such as tort law, trusts law, contract law or criminal law. Students should also note that some of the classes and half of the assessment will require students to engage in oral advocacy, i.e. making an argument in a fictitious court (including performance in front of others), and to provide oral feedback on their own work and the work of peers. Students should note that the Advocacy module has fortnightly seminars of 2 hours duration and weekly lectures of 1 hour. Preparation time for every class is around 4 ¿ 6 hours. 50% of the assessment in the Advocacy module is by way of an oral advocacy task at the end of the module. The remaining 50% is a written advocacy task, submitted as coursework. Both parts of the assessment will utilise the problem question marking criteria. Additional guidance and examples will be provided throughout the module in respect of the court-based structure and format of these assessment tasks. There will be an optional formative opportunity for both parts of the assessment.

• LAPM16 Advanced Criminal Practice

  The overriding objective of the Advanced Criminal Practice module is to build up knowledge and confidence in respect of criminal prosecutions so that upon completion of the module a student can conduct a criminal case from first instruction at the Police Station or in the office, ascertain the instructions and the defence (if any), prepare and conduct the trial, prepare Crown Court work and be able to draft indictments. Also the course enables students to look at cases from a CPS viewpoint which was virtually impossible in the Core Module of Criminal Litigation.
