Synopsis
The aim of the workshop is to equip lawyers with the tools and the confidence to take on appeals and judicial review proceedings in the High Court.
This will be achieved by a consideration of the statutory requirements and an examination of all relevant documents.
A complete set of precedents will be provided. Attendees will work through each of these and learn how to adapt them to their client’s case.
