Legal Practice Management
Legal Practice Management Course
The Legal Practice Management Course is developed and run by leaders who also manage legal businesses. Their experience helps to ensure that you gain the understanding and skills you need to manage your own firm and broaden your career options.
The College program meets the requirements of state regulating bodies and offers a solid ground in law practice management or as a refresher course for more experienced practitioners.
Who is it for?
Our course has been specifically designed for legal practitioners who want to practise as a:
- sole practitioner
- partner of a law firm
- supervisor of a community legal service

The course is also beneficial to:
- in-house lawyers with management responsibilities or who are looking to gain an understanding about legal services
- experienced practitioners who are looking for techniques to grow their practice and update practice managements skills
- Legal Practice Managers and other professionals working in law firms
The course effectively presented the practical, ethical and legal aspects of managing a law practice, which I now draw on frequently.
