[QUOTE="Andrei Radu, post: 211406, member: 36777"] To take your questions in turn: • Both because of how these exercises are generally conducted and because of how the firm has specifically referred to assessing you on your ability to show "client care" and "empathy", I am quite confident you are supposed to answer as if you are talking to the client directly. • Because of the time limits I do not think there will be an expectation for you to go in any level of depth on the legal matters. What they will be looking for is likely to see if you can identify the core legal points, apply them to the facts, and state your conclusions in a clear and concise manner. • There's no set format to follow for this type of presentation - my advice is to just go for the structure that seems most intuitive and easy to follow to you. If this were my presentation, I would probably have a very short introduction stating the facts, then I would pitch the firm's expertise, and finally I would explain how the firm would plan to deal with the case based on the legal points you have researched. • Different departments might be involved depending on the particular firm, as different firms structure their practice areas differently. The teams I expect would be involved would be the general litigation teams and then specialist advisory media/IP law teams. [/QUOTE]
