what type of law do you need to study at University to become a Legal Officer?

Tori C.

Regimental Medical Officer

Hello,

The full entry requirements can be found on our website - https://apply.army.mod.uk/roles/army-legal-services/legal-officer

You will need to be a Qualified solicitor, barrister or Scottish advocate, qualified in England and Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland and have completed your training contract or pupillage.

Therefore any law degree that allows you to achieve the above would be suitable.

I hope that helps.
