Go to your local library, find the law section - pick up a title that looks interesting and start reading.

Hiya!

Today, I actually posted a new discussion on how to write a personal statement, which I think you might find helpful-especially the section on what to do if you don’t have any experience yet.

Here is the link to the discussion https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=7538869

Additionally, for law applicants, the UCAS website has a very useful page that’s worth checking out.

i would advise you to go visit local courts. Another thing you could do is apply to do volunteering at citizens advice bureau or at the courts. You could also do some virtual law work experience.
