[QUOTE="Abbie Whitlock, post: 230154, member: 42112"] Hello! This is a great question, and I'd say it focuses more on your reasoning rather than having the "right" law. A structure that I would follow would be: [LIST=1] [*]Briefly explain the law as it currently stands [*]Identify the problem - what currently doesn't work and who this affects [*]Explain the change you'd make [*]Justify these changes - this could involve discussing the legal, commercial, or societal impact as a whole [/LIST] I don't think it is necessary to link it to the firm (and I wouldn't try to force a link), but if you can naturally tie it to a practice area or sector the firm works in, that is a bonus! The key is to show your thought process, and that you have balanced the consequences to come to a clear conclusion. I hope that helps! :) [/QUOTE]
