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. And most private tutors have never worked in law. LawByLak is what happens when someone working in law who tutors A-Level Law every week decides to fix both.
My name is Lakshan Satheeskumar — Lak to everyone who knows me. I graduated with a First-Class Law degree, went on to complete a Master's in Law, and I now work in a City law firm with a training contract in progress. Alongside legal practice, I've been tutoring A-Level and AS-Level Law for years — over 1,000 hours of 1:1 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 — first as notes for my own tutees, now as a full tutoring service with those notes bundled in. 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. When I explain a case in a session, I explain it the way it's used in real legal practice — which is exactly what examiners reward at Level 4.
I'm not a content farm. I'm not an ex-teacher. I'm not a uni-student side hustle. I'm someone working in law who teaches A-Level Law every week and writes everything LawByLak ships personally. When you book a session, you get me — not a substitute, not a Discord group, not a chatbot.
