Legal Studies – Contract and Tort

Order Description

For Problem based questions: The formula here is:
• Identify. Specify the legal principle or area of law that the question is about.
• Explain. State what that principle(s) is (are) and whether there are any exceptions and what defences there may be.
• Apply. Apply the law to the particular facts of the question. In other words, analyse the problem set using the relevant legal principles.
• Advise. Conclude by advising the person that you have been asked to advise. Always leave this until last.

The law stated needs to be backed up by cases and any referencing needs to be put in quotations marks, based on Harvard Referencing.
