Did you gain any work experience before moving to Canada ? Like should a fresh graduate without no experience go for NCA process , bar exam and articling ? And if not then what's the ideal number of years you should have experience in your home country before you go for Canada

[@RabeeaKhalidLawStudyKit]

Nope. I didn't have any work experience. I had only done an internship at a Bank. Work experience is not mandatory. If you have some it would be great but you can always start somewhere.

[@purvisharma6733]

Hi Rabea, thanks a lot for spreading out such useful information! Can you please help me know whether NCA accredition is mandatory to work as an in-house counsel at a corporate/MNC? Also what are the job prospects for Regulatory Compliance role in Canada. Thanks:)

Will an internationally trained lawyer who has been called to bar in Canada but didn’t go to Canada law school have as much job opportunities and be paid as much as those who went to Canada law school?

[@RabeeaKhalidLawStudyKit]

Great questions! I'll do a detailed video on this.

Hi, your videos are awesome! After listening you I think could apply for those jobs in an express entry program. I’m a lawyer since 2003, with a PHD in international law, human rights and education. You cleared my mind a lot with this information. Do you give any immigration advice or services? Thank you a lot!

[@RabeeaKhalidLawStudyKit]

Thank you! Yes! You can contact me at my work email: [e-mail]. I can't provide any legal advice on my channel.

[@poojagandhi8181]

Hi ! so i am an internationally trained lawyer ( B.A.LL.B.-5 years ) and i want to apply to apply for an LLM may i know from which uni you completed yours and which one you would recommend and also the chances to get Permanent residency after you get through the NCA exams hope to hear from you soon regards

[@RabeeaKhalidLawStudyKit]

I went to Osgoode Hall Law School for a Master of Laws in International Business Law. It was a good program and I would definitely recommend it if you are interested in business law.

[@poojagandhi8181]

Rabeea Khalid - Law Study Kit I am more interested in contractual negotiations and planning for UBC will it be better or same as ossgood ?

@@poojagandhi8181 Unfortunately, I haven't studied at UBC so I don't know much. Overall, I have heard greats things about UBC. So it is really your personal choice at the end of the day.

Hello Rabeea, by the term Internationally trained lawyer, do you mean to refer those who have cleared their NCA exams or also those who just have a Foreign Law Degree with or without any experience? If they include the second class of lawyers I mentioned, do such lawyers get work permits? Thanks in advance.

[@vatankumarattri392]

Congrats

I am a law graduate from India without experience and haven't registered with the bar yet. Am I eligible to apply for NCA assessment?

[@RabeeaKhalidLawStudyKit]

Yes a qualifying law degree is sufficient to apply for the NCA Assessment.

Vasu , i want to know if my points are 458 ,before entering in Austrailia,and if i get a work student visa for the purpose of getting in enroll in canadian bar,would that work permitt add points in my PR profile?

[@purulekhi]

Ma'am I've a little query if you'd mind answering Ma'am after clearing the NCA, is it mandatory to get admission into LLM ? Can we go for Post Graduation Diploma Course in a particular law ? I mean after completing the course, am i eligible for articling and then writing the solicitor and barrister exams ?

[@maeheck]

The LLM has no relation with the NCA exams or the articles or the Barrister and Solicitor exam. It can give you a study permit and some networking opportunities. But if you can’t afford it or don’t want to do LLM, you could look at diplomas too.

[@purulekhi]

@@maeheck thank you for your help 😃

[@RabeeaKhalidLawStudyKit]

It is not mandatory to take the LLM. If you complete your NCA exams you are eligible to article and then take the licensing exams.

Hi , I like your video but what a difference between paralegal and legal assistant ? Isn’t a same ?

[@RabeeaKhalidLawStudyKit]

Good question! No they are not. Paralegals are licensed by the law society where as legal assistants only have to complete a diploma.

[@nehalmahuli8121]

Hi Rabeeda. Thank you for this video. I am an Indian lawyer having experience in the insurance field working as a liability manager. Would be moving to Canada next year post marriage. I would be deeply grateful if you could let me know the means to practice in insurance industry in Toronto. How do I get entry in insurance industry? Do I have to appear for NCA? Or is this work experience considered good enough to secure a job directly?

[@nehalmahuli8121]

My role as a liability manager is basically to analyse coverage assessment of all the liability claims.

[@RabeeaKhalidLawStudyKit]

Writing the NCA exams is the first step in becoming a lawyer in Canada. If you want to practice law in the insurance industry then yes you will have to take the NCA exams. If you want to work as a contract analyst or a legal assistant then your work experience might be sufficient. I would recommend reaching out to someone in the insurance industry on LinkedIn and asking them these questions. They might have a better understanding of insurance than I do.

How long does it take to be licensed , after you have given bar exam

[@RabeeaKhalidLawStudyKit]

Depends on if you have completed other licensing requirements. If you have, it should take approximately another 2-3 months.
