Advocate Case Study

Mark Reeves F.Inst.L.Ex – Legal Executive Advocate

“I can represent my client from the briefing through to the court case”

“After qualifying as a Legal Executive in 1997, Mark was amongst the first group to undertake the extended Rights of Audience Training and become a Legal Executive Advocate. He can now represent clients from the first briefing through to the actual court case.

"I am a member of the Law Society’s Family Panel," said Mark, "and was granted the Solicitors Family Law Association specialist accreditation in children’s proceedings. As I specialise in Family Law, I also earned the Joseph Jackson Memorial Prize for the best examination paper in Matrimonial Law.

“I would encourage anybody who is considering a career as a Legal Executive to give it their best shot.  Whether studying at college or by distance learning, I believe the key is to have the self-discipline and determination to succeed. ILEX has allowed me to carve out a successful career in law where I am respected by my peers.”

Matthew George F.Inst.L.Ex - Legal Executive Advocate

"The Advocacy Skills Course run by Altior was excellent and provided me with a firm foundation on which to develop my career.  I look forward to the challenge.  I am extremely proud to be among the first in the Country to qualify as a Legal Executive Advocate in Criminal Proceedings.

"I would encourage all Legal Executives practicing civil, family and criminal law to apply for extended rights of audience. In qualifying as a Legal Executive you have already proved that you have knowledge and experience: the Advocacy courses will show you that you also have the skills and the confidence to be an advocate."
