Qualified Lawyers Transfer Test

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Qualified Lawyers Transfer Test (QLTT) was a regulatory exam for foreign licensed lawyers who wanted to practice as solicitors in England and Wales. From 2010, the test was gradually phased out in favor of Qualified Lawyers Transfer Scheme. QLTT required eligibility such as being from certain jurisdictions and years of legal practice. The QLTT is no longer in force.

The test covers four subject areas of "heads".

  • Head 1 – Property
  • Head 2 – Litigation (either criminal or civil)
  • Head 3 – Professional conduct and accounts
  • Head 4 – Principles of common law
