I would like to obtain an LLB (Hons) but am not sure if I want to qualify as a solicitor or barrister. What other career possibilities might be open to me?
A person holding an LLB (Hons) (whether or not it is recognised as a Qualifying Law Degree) will be well suited to many sorts of work. There are, for example, many people employed in the civil service and local government with such a qualification. An LLB (Hons) provides an excellent degree for those who wish to pursue careers in the Inland Revenue, social services, or health and safety fields. Other types of work open to such a graduate are legal research and teaching, mediation work, and advice work in the context of trade unions, campaign groups and charities. Law degrees are also well recognised in banking, insurance, financial and commercial firms and may also assist higher career development in the police, probation and prison services.
