Master the science and art of affidavits and witness statements in this workshop designed to equip law students studying law with court ready practical skills.

You will learn the fundamentals of:
- Taking a witness statement/affidavit
- Substance of an affidavit

Unlike law school, we learn by doing! From the get go, you'll be taken through practical examples based off real world issues solicitors and legal clerks face. You'll walk away with a drafted affidavit and have an opportunity to submit it for additional comments and improvements.
