Study guides for core LLB modules

Plain-language study guides cover nineteen core modules: Introduction to Law and Legal Skills, Law of Persons, Law of Contract, Law of Delict, Foundations of Criminal Law, Constitutional Law and the Bill of Rights, Property Law, Specific Contracts (sale, lease, agency, insurance and suretyship), Family Law, Law of Succession, Criminal Procedure, Law of Evidence, Legal Ethics, Legal History, Insolvency Law, Administrative Law, Labour Law, Company Law, and Civil Procedure.

Each guide explains the concepts with examples and has practice after each topic. The guides are in beta and have not yet been legally reviewed, so use them alongside your course outline and prescribed material.

  • Upload PDFs to your library and generate structured study notes from them.
  • Choose ready-made flashcard sets for each module and review them on a schedule that brings back the cards you find harder.
