How We Actually Teach Law
Most legal education feels disconnected from real practice. We start with actual situations our students face, then work backward to understand the underlying principles.
Case-First Learning
Every concept starts with a real situation. We examine what went wrong in actual transactions, then build understanding from those concrete examples.
Document Workshops
You'll review and markup real contracts, purchase agreements, and disclosure forms. Learn to spot the clauses that cause problems before they happen.
Regional Variations
Canadian property law changes significantly by province. We cover the differences that matter for your specific market and practice area.
Your Learning Journey
The program runs for six months, starting September 2025. Each phase builds practical skills you can apply immediately.
Foundations & Framework
We establish core concepts through examination of failed transactions and successful negotiations. You'll understand how property rights work in practice, not just in theory.
Contract Analysis & Risk Assessment
Deep study of purchase agreements, lease structures, and disclosure requirements. Learn to identify and address potential problems before they become expensive mistakes.
Regulatory Compliance & Ethics
Navigate zoning laws, environmental regulations, and professional standards. Understand when to proceed with confidence and when to seek additional counsel.
Advanced Applications
Commercial transactions, development projects, and complex ownership structures. Work through multi-party scenarios and sophisticated deal structures.
