Publisher's Synopsis
A significant portion of law today revolves around business, commerce and ethics. Commercial awareness is one of the key skills that a good and competent solicitor needs to master. The Law Society of Scotland has identified commercial awareness and professional ethics as key vocational skills. They form part of the Society's PEAT1 learning outcomes and are taught on the Diploma of Legal Practice. This text is the first to cover all of the Law Society's requirements in a single book.
