- Practise checking names, case references, dates, page counts and attachments in a sample filing.

- Think of clear ways to explain a procedural issue without offering legal advice.
- Be ready to describe how you would protect physical and electronic case records.
Common mistakes
- Giving legal advice when the role is to explain administrative procedure.
- Changing a record informally without preserving an audit trail.
