  4. What our students say “The program offered a close-to-practice environment ... The duration of the practice, its routine, its higher level of expectations, met the appropriate technology base that helped to simulate an entire firm of 3-4 practitioners... A firmly packed semester involved resolving a diverse range of legal matters… So unmistakably the NEW Transactional Legal Practice topic offers a unique experience: the practice environment.” “In the later topics we were exposed to work and an environment that we would be exposed to in the real world. With a large emphasis placed on group work, I gained insight into the workings of a law firm and the challenges associated with teamwork.” “The PLT experience I had was the most gratifying time throughout my University days. To be able to put to use what I have been learning for the past four years, and to be confident in my abilities was encouraging.” “The last six months has been the highlight of my Law School experience making the transition from student to professional a seamless one.”
