Are you preparing to start your own legal practice? Or maybe you’re about to join a practice as its newest principal?
If you want to become a principal or sole practitioner of a law firm, you will need to undertake a compulsory Legal Practice Management Course in accordance with The Law Society of New South Wales.
‘Condition 3 is a discretionary condition imposed pursuant to s 53 of the Legal Profession Uniform Law (NSW) and Rule 16(b)(ii) of the Legal Profession Uniform General Rules 2015. If a practitioners’ practising certificate is held subject to this condition, they must complete a Practice Management Course before being able to practice as a principal of a law practice.’
