Y Gyfraith ar Waith

Module Facts

Run by School of Law

20.000 Credits or 10.000 ECTS Credits

Semester 1 & 2

Organiser: Dr Hayley Roberts

Overall aims and purpose

Mae’r modiwl yma’n rhoi mewnwelediad ymarferol i waith y proffesiwn cyfreithiol yng Nghymru i fyfyrwyr. Drwy gyfres o weithdai ymarferol, ceith myfyrwyr y cyfle i brofi sefyllfeydd mae cyfreithwyr a bargyfreithwyr yn delio gydag yn eu gwaith dyddiol, yng nghyd-destun cyfraith gyhoeddus a phreifat. Rhoddir i fyfyrwyr y medru i ymarfer yr hynny maent yn dysgu yn sgil y LLB, tra eu bod hefyd yn datblygu’r sgiliau angenrheidiol i weithio yn y proffesiwn cyfreithiol yng Nghymru.

Bydd y modiwl yn helpu cyflogadwyedd myfyrwyr drwy wneud yn siŵr eu bod yn datblygu’r sgiliau perthnasol, ac wrth eu hamlygu i gyfreithwyr gweithredol a gwahoddir i helpu trosgludo’r sesiynau.

Fydd y modiwl yn cael ei drosgludo’n ddwyieithog, ond mae’r medru i siarad Cymraeg yn angenrheidiol.


This module will give students a hands-on insight into the work of the legal profession in Wales. Through a series of practical workshops, students will have the opportunity to experience situations that solicitors and barristers would normally encounter in their daily work in both public and private law contexts. It will give students the ability to translate what they are learning during the course of the LLB into practice, whilst also developing the necessary skills that are required to work in the legal profession in Wales.

It is expected that the module will help the employability of students by allowing them to gain relevant skills and by exposing them to working lawyers who will be invited to help with the delivery of the sessions.

This module will be delivered bilingually, but the ability to speak Welsh is essential.

Course content

Mae’r modiwl yma’n cyflwyno myfyrwyr i agweddau o ymarfer cyfreithiol gymhwysol. Mae’r seminarau ar ffurf gweithdai ymarferol, ble fydd myfyrwyr yn ymgymryd â gwahanol weithgareddau pob wythnos, gyda ffocws ar Gymru.

Fydd rhan gyntaf y modiwl yn gadael i fyfyrwyr gymryd rôl cyfreithiwr cyhoeddus sy’n gweithio i lywodraeth genedlaethol neu leol, yn rhoi’r cyfle iddynt weithio ar dasgau megis drafftio deddfwriaeth a sicrhau bod y gyfraith yn hygyrch i wahanol ddemograffigiau.

Mae ail ran y modiwl yn ffocysu ar waith gleient preifat ac eiddo, yn gadael myfyrwyr i arwain ymarferion megis drafftio ewyllys i gleient, gosod ymddiriedolaeth, a datblygu sgiliau cyfweld cleientiaid.

Mae rhan olaf y modiwl yn rhoi profiad cyfreitha ac eiriolaeth i fyfyrwyr, yn eu cyflwyno i sgiliau megis paratoi briff ar gyfer y llys, croeshoeli dystion a chyflwyno achos gerbron y llys.


This module will introduce students to aspects of applied legal practice. The seminars will take the form of practical workshops, where students will undertake different legal activities each week, with a focus on Wales.

The first part of the module will allow students to assume the role of a public lawyer working for national or local government, giving them the opportunity to work on tasks such as drafting legislation and ensuring that the law is accessible to different demographics.

The second part of the module will focus on private client and property work, allowing students to take the lead in exercises such as drafting a will for a client, setting up a trust, and developing skills in interviewing clients.

The final part of the module gives students the experience of litigation and advocacy, introducing them to such skills as preparing a brief for court, cross-examining witnesses and presenting a case in court.

Resources

Resource implications for students

Mae’r modiwl yn cwmpasu llawer o feysydd gwahanol o fewn y gyfraith, ac felly, ni fydd un llyfr testun yn ymdrin â’r deunydd. Er hynny, gellir myfyrwyr ddefnyddio eu llyfrau testun o fodiwlau eraill megis Cyfraith Gyhoeddus, Sgiliau Cyfreithiol, Ecwiti ac Ymddiriedolaethau a Chyfraith Trosedd. Bydd rhestr ddarllen llawn yn cael ei darparu yn y maes llafur, a bydd myfyrwyr yn cael eu cyfeirio at ffynonellau ar-lein lle posib. ---------- The module encompasses many different areas of law, and as such, no one textbook will cover the material. Students will nonetheless be able to use their textbooks from modules such as Public Law, Legal Skills, Equity and Trusts and Criminal Law. A full reading list will be provided in the syllabus, and students will be directed to online sources where possible.
