Has anyone here qualified as a solicitor through the Equivalent Means route?
Hi everyone,
I have a law degree and completed the LPC back in 2017. I’ve just secured a job as a paralegal with a council and am looking to qualify as a solicitor through the Equivalent Means route. Has anyone here gone down this path? I’d really appreciate any advice or insights into the process, what to expect, and any tips for making it through.
Thanks in advance!

Hello, I'm on this path and about to submit my application by end of this month. Was looking for anyone else in same boat. Are you still considering this route? What legal work experience do you have?
