Become an Advocate

You can train to be a Legal Executive Advocate with ILEX. Higher rights of audience allow you to offer a complete service to a client – from initial advice, through to case preparation and presentation before the courts.

Rights of audience for Legal Executive Advocates are available in civil, family and criminal proceedings. 

The course is open to you if you are a Graduate Member or Fellow seeking rights in the area in which you practice, although if you are a Graduate Member you will not be able to exercise advocacy rights until you qualify as a Fellow.

More information about Legal Executive Advocates can be found on this page.
