    Ep 7: Fresh Legal Graduate's Perspective on Law

    Welcome back to another episode of Liddat Law! Sorry for the audio quality on this podcast episode due to errors on the calibration of technical equipment. However, if you are able to look past it, this episode is a new face of Liddat Law that looks into the popular topic and discussion I have with a treasured friend, Edward Khaw. Topics such as the Certificate in Legal Practice, Law School studies, AI, and other topics that would interest someone who is intent to study or practice law. This episode helps to remind us that the area of law is just as human as any other industries; that behind the supposed glamour of it all, the struggles and reality of law may hit a little different.
