[QUOTE="BuddingLawyer, post: 150942, member: 29870"] Hi Sorry for this basic and dumb question, but can someone tell me what qualification means (apart from the obvious advantage of officially being able to practice law) and its professional implications? Specifically, I hear folks talk about how I qualified in this and that area... what does that even mean? Say I am lucky to get a TC and do 4 seats in Corporate, Finance, Competition and Tax and enjoy all of them, what will I "qualify" as? Does my qualification document specify that I qualified in the x or y area as a specialisation? Or do we just qualify as general solicitors? If so, why do even folks talk about how I qualified as a finance lawyer? Isn't that technically incorrect, since after 2 years I could switch my interest to competition? Sorry, I am coming across as an idiot. Thanks [/QUOTE]
