A-LEVEL LAW · ABOUT

Lakshan Satheeskumar.

Qualifying as a solicitor. Tutoring A-Level Law. Writing the resources I wish I'd had when I sat the exam — clear, examiner-aligned, no subscription model, no upsells. Just the work.

The story

I built the resource I wish I'd had.

Most A-Level Law revision content is either too broad to be useful, or too dense to actually revise from. LawByLak is what happens when a First-Class Law graduate who actually tutors students every week decides to fix that.

My name is Lakshan Satheeskumar — Lak to everyone who knows me. I'm currently qualifying as a solicitor — and alongside that, I've been tutoring A-Level and AS-Level Law for years — more than 1,000 hours of one-to-one and small-group teaching, mostly with students sitting OCR (H418 and H018) and AQA papers.

Same mistakes appear week after week. Same misread of mens rea. Same skipped step on causation. Same confusion between intention and motive. Same students writing "R v Pembilton" because that's how the OCR mark scheme misspells it, and same students losing marks because the textbook they used didn't catch it.

I built LawByLak to fix that — at scale, in writing, in the format examiners actually reward. Every topic is checked against the live OCR H418, OCR H018, and AQA specifications, examiner reports going back several years, and the actual mark schemes. Every case is audit-corrected. Every "Use it in an exam" box uses the exact phrasing OCR's mark scheme rewards.

I'm not a content farm. I'm a one-person operation, currently qualifying as a solicitor, who teaches A-Level Law every week and writes everything LawByLak ships personally.
