Group Description
The Legal Studies Club is an online academic club designed for students aged 14–18 who are interested in the law, legal systems, and careers in justice.

What We Explore and Learn:
- Weekly sessions covering foundational topics such as constitutional law, criminal and civil law, international law, and human rights
- Case studies of landmark court decisions and famous legal controversies
- Mock trials, legal debates, and moot court simulations where members role-play as attorneys, judges, and jurors
- Legal research and writing workshops to learn how to craft arguments, briefs, and legal opinions
- Guest speakers including lawyers, judges, legal scholars, and law students sharing career advice and insights
