Practise legal work for a client, not just for an exam
A supplier claims force majeure and your client wants to know where they stand. Find the deadlines, research the law, serve the notice in time and redraft the contract, with a client who reacts.

A real exercise
Atlas, a supplier, sends a force majeure notice after a fire at its own supplier. Your client needs advice by Friday. You read the contract, work out which deadlines are running, check the case law, serve a notice correctly, and write advice the client can act on.
How it works
Every exercise follows the same rhythm as the real job: a problem arrives, you investigate, you act, and the simulated company responds.
- 01
The client calls
A notice arrives, a contract needs changing, or a deadline is about to pass.
- 02
You research
Read the contract and the correspondence, find the deadlines, and look up the authorities that apply.
- 03
You act
Diarise the deadlines, serve the notice, redline the clause and write the advice.
- 04
You see what held
Missed deadlines, wrong citations and unclear drafting are caught, and the debrief explains why they matter.
What you practise
Concrete tasks taken from the exercises on this page. Each one is done with real data, under real constraints, inside the same simulated company.
- T01
Calculate and diarise deadlines
Work out business days and limitation periods, and record them properly.
- T02
Serve a notice correctly
Right party, right method, right time, as the contract requires.
- T03
Research authorities
Find and cite the cases that support the advice.
- T04
Redline a contract
Revise clauses, use defined terms consistently and negotiate rather than only mark up.
- T05
Advise the client
Write a clear note that tells the client what to do next.
What your organisation gets
Evidence, not attendance.
- 01
Practical skills before the first job
Students practise the careful, deadline-driven work that trainees and junior lawyers do.
- 02
Clear, specific feedback
Each deadline, notice, citation and drafting choice is checked, so feedback is specific.
- 03
Part of a wider business story
The legal matter comes from the same company whose plant and cash problems learners see elsewhere.
The tools you work with
Working tools, not screenshots. They read the same live data as the rest of the simulated company, and what you change in one shows up in the others.
- 01
Deadlines and service
Count business days and limitation periods from the right date, diarise them, serve notices.
- 02
Legal research
The matter's library of authorities, searchable, with what each one supports.
- 03
Contract drafting
The draft clause by clause, the alternatives, the client's instructions and drafting checks.

What every attempt leaves behind
Judge the work, not a quiz score. Every attempt is recorded as it happens, so you can see how someone worked, not only where they ended up.
Every action, in order
What was checked, who was asked, what was changed and when. Nothing is overwritten.
Scores by skill
Each exercise scores the skills it was built to test, from what was actually done.
Weak habits, flagged
Poor patterns in how the work was done are flagged, not only wrong final answers.
A replay of the attempt
Step through the session as it happened, with typed personal details masked.

Which law does it use?
The current exercises use English contract law, with a curated library of relevant cases.
Is it a moot court?
No. Moots practise arguing in court. These exercises practise the office work around a dispute: deadlines, notices, research, drafting and advice.
Who is it for?
Law students, trainee solicitors, paralegals and legal teams training new joiners.
