Although Thomas Hobbes’s Leviathan might have detailed the social contract all the way back in 1651, law had been in practice for hundreds of years already. This means that law has had the time to infiltrate into various aspects of daily living. The advantage this has for anyone with a law degree is that there are dozens of opportunities that require law training.
Modern law has so many different facets that it is difficult for most people to keep up. This is exactly where lawyers provide a vital link in the legal system. Your role as someone with a qualification in this field is largely up to you because of all these different aspects of law.
The careers you can consider range from practising law as an attorney or advocate, to business, academia, the government, public interest organisations and many more. At the heart of it will always be the connection to a profession that is both old and intrinsically linked to the complex relationships in society.
Unpacking these ideas for you will be the work of a trusted and similarly experienced educational institution such as Varsity College.
