Following are the books I have bought for QLTS purpose:1) Unlocking Criminal Law
2) Unlocking Land Law
3) Unlocking Torts
4) Unlocking Trusts
5) Unlocking Human Rights
6) Core text series on Contracts
7) Core text series on Constitutional and Administrative Law
8) Core text series on Company Law
9) St James Place Tax Guide
10) Conversion Course Companion for Law
11) Key Facts and Key Cases Series on Law
12) Law in a Nutshell series
13) Business Law by Oxford University Press
14) Foundation for Legal Practice Course by Oxford University Press
15) Accounts for Solicitors by College of Law Publishing
16) English Legal System by Ward and Akhtar
The above texts deal with the core aspects of law, accounting and professional ethics relevant for 1st stage (Click here or here to see the outcomes for this stage; Part A is relevant here).
I have also bought the following books in addition:
1) Civil Litigation published by Oxford University Press
2) Criminal Litigation published by Oxford University Press
3) Property Law and Practice published by College of Law Publishing
4) Lawyers' Skills published by Oxford University Press
5) Advocacy published by Oxford University Press
6) Conference Skills published by Oxford University Press
7) Drafting published by Oxford University Press
8) Opinion Writing published by Oxford University Press
9) Case Presentation published by Oxford University Press
10) Legal Practice Course Companion by Motogue and Weston
These books are relevant for 2nd and 3rd Stage (Click here to see the outcomes for these stages; Part C, D and F are relevant). But, they deal with the procedural / practical aspects of law and therefore cannot be read in isolation. They should be read along the books listed for 1st stage which deal with the substantive law :(
You dont have to be baffled by the number of books involved. You should know what to read and how much read in each book (Easier said than done!!). Some books may require in-depth study (eg Unlocking Land Law) and some only a cursory glance (eg Conference Skills). A thorough understanding of the day-1 outcomes prescribed by the SRA will guide you through this mysterious journey.
I am not recommending any book as there are many which are equally good or even better than the ones I have bought. I picked these books and will rely on them, for: (a) most of them are written for students, (b) many of them are prescribed texts for law degree / diploma, etc, (c) I got them cheap on the internet (all are used ones and I got many for a penny! Check out amazon.co.uk and you may also find few good bargains). You can buy any book written for students as they all come in reasonable size which is important for focused preparation.
I will keep posting summaries, important facts, cases, my analysis etc as I keep reading these books for your benefit. If I bump into any useful reading materials on the net, I will post them here. So keep checking for my posts.
I ALSO ENCOURAGE VISITORS TO USE ‘COMMENTS’ SECTION TO POST ADDITIONAL READING MATERIALS, MCQs etc, SO THAT THEY CAN BENEFIT ALL.
