UTS Law Students' Society presents the Client Interview tutorial video.

The Client Interview is a simulated conference in which teams of two lawyers interview a client for the first time. The focus of the competition is the identification of the nature of the client's problem, investigation of relevant background and the suggestion of an appropriate structured solution. Given these objectives, no knowledge of the substantive law is necessary, and only limited pre-interview preparation is required. The problems consist of a short memorandum, such as a law office secretary might give to interviewing practitioners when a client has called to make an appointment.
The competition aims to provide students with an opportunity to develop their client interview technique and enhance their skills of perception and communication, proficiencies which are essential in day-to-day legal practice.
This video demonstrates some techniques students can utilise in the competition. Interviews from academics and past student competitors allow for an insight in order to succeed in the competition and how you can improve your interview skills.
