"Every single person I had to deal with during my program was professional, kind and helpful. It felt the staff seemed genuinely interested in the students and wanted us to do well. Most of our lecturers were also experts in their field who currently work as lawyers but they were always contactable and approachable, and responded to our questions promptly."
