A-LEVEL LAW · FOR PARENTS

The tutor you'd actually want for your child.

1:1 A-Level Law tutoring with someone working in law — First-Class degree, Master's in Law, 1,000+ hours teaching A-Level students. Every session recorded, backed by WhatsApp support, and includes the full LawByLak revision library free. Or buy the modules standalone from £49.99. Aligned to OCR H418, OCR H018 and AQA 7162.

What this is

The short version.

LawByLak offers 1:1 A-Level Law tutoring for OCR H418, OCR H018 and AQA 7162 students, delivered by Lakshan Satheeskumar — a First-Class Law graduate with a Master's in Law who works in a City law firm and has been tutoring A-Level Law for over 1,000 hours. Every tutoring session is 1:1 on Google Meet, recorded and sent to your child within 24 hours, and backed by WhatsApp support between lessons.

Every tutoring package includes the full LawByLak module library free — the audit-corrected interactive revision notes I use to teach. If you prefer, you can buy the modules standalone from £49.99 per topic. Either way, every case is cross-checked against real examiner reports and every phrase mirrors what OCR and AQA mark schemes actually reward. Not a content agency. Not AI-generated. Not a uni-student side hustle. Written and taught by someone working in law.

What to know

What every parent should be told.

🛡 Enhanced DBS checked

Lak holds a current Enhanced DBS certificate, obtained and returned clear. Since January 2026 self-employed private tutors can be checked at Enhanced level, and government guidance says parents may ask to see the certificate before lessons begin — ask, and Lak will show you his. Sessions are 1:1 on Google Meet, recorded, and you are welcome to sit in on any of them.

📊 A progress page of your own

While your child is on a programme you can sign in to a read-only page showing how it is going: the homework they've been set and whether it's done, their next session and the note Lak writes after each one, and the marks they're getting. You won't see what they write, or Lak's feedback on it — that stays between them, so they keep being honest in it. They know the page exists. Sign in →

✓ Taught from inside a law firm

Lak is a First-Class Law graduate with a Master's in Law, currently working in a City law firm. Not an ex-teacher, not a uni student, not a content agency. Your child gets a tutor who applies the law every day. Read more about Lak →

💬 A straight answer on fees

Fees depend on where your child is starting and how long there is before the exam, so they’re discussed on a free 15-minute call rather than listed. You’ll have a clear figure before anything is booked. Modules are included in every programme, or £49.99 each on their own. No hidden costs, no subscriptions.

🎁 Free 15-min Trial Lesson

Not sure if it's the right fit? Book a free 15-minute Trial Lesson with Lak on Google Meet. No card, no commitment. Your child brings questions, sees how Lak teaches, then decides.

🎥 Every session recorded

All 60-minute Google Meet sessions are recorded and sent to your child within 24 hours. They can rewatch anytime — especially valuable in the two weeks before exams. No third-party platforms, no shared accounts, no lost lessons.

💬 WhatsApp support included

Between sessions, your child can WhatsApp Lak with quick questions, essay checks, and case-application queries. Direct access to the tutor — no chatbot, no gatekeeper. Priority replies on Private Mentorship.

📚 Aligned to OCR & AQA

Every session, every note, every case is aligned to the live specifications — OCR H418 (A-Level) and OCR H018 (AS-Level). A separate series of 65 modules covers the AQA 7162 specification. Cross-checked against real examiner reports so the language your child uses matches what markers actually reward.

Lakshan Satheeskumar — founder of LawByLak
Who built it

Hi, I'm Lakshan.

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 tutor A-Level Law: over 1,000 hours to date, mostly OCR and AQA candidates. When I explain a case to your child, I explain it the way it's actually used in legal practice, which is exactly what OCR and AQA examiners reward at Level 4. The notes at LawByLak came out of the resource I wished I'd had — now used by me in every tutoring session.

Common questions

What parents actually ask.

How does the tutoring actually work?
Every session is taught by Lak on Google Meet and recorded, so your child can rewatch it. There are three programmes — Private Mentorship, the Mastery Programme and the Exam Technique Intensive — depending on how much support your child needs and how long there is before the exam. Every one includes WhatsApp support between sessions and the LawByLak learning platform. Start with a free 15-minute trial.
What am I actually paying for?
Every session with Lak himself — never an assistant or a rotating tutor. The LawByLak learning platform, where your child’s homework, marked work and progress sit in one place. Marked exam answers with written feedback. Recordings of every session. WhatsApp support between them. And the revision modules for the topics covered. A typical private tutor charges for their time alone; a LawByLak programme includes the marking, the materials and the support in between. Fees are discussed on the free trial call.
Can we try before committing?
Yes. The free 15-minute trial is a call with Lak on Google Meet — no card, no commitment. Your child brings whatever’s worrying them, sees how Lak teaches, and you get an honest recommendation on which programme would help, if any.
What if it doesn't work out?
Refunds for unused sessions are set out on the refund page, and Lak handles every request personally — email hello@lawbylak.co.uk.
Do we have to book tutoring, or can we just buy notes?
Either works. Notes are £49.99 per topic, and bundles save between 20% and 72% depending on how many topics they cover. But the tutoring is where the real value is. Notes are the reference material; sessions are where Lak shows your child how to use them in the exam — the thing that moves a Level 3 answer to Level 4. Every programme includes the modules.
Is the content age-appropriate?
It's A-Level Law content — covering Criminal Law (murder, manslaughter, non-fatal offences against the person, property offences), Tort Law, and Law Making at the academic level required by the specification. The treatment is academic and case-based, identical to what your child's school textbook covers. No graphic content, no inappropriate material — just legal cases and principles at A-Level standard.
What's Lak's background? Can I trust the credentials?
Lakshan Satheeskumar has a First-Class Law degree, a Master's in Law, works in a City law firm, and has delivered 1,000+ hours of A-Level and AS-Level Law tutoring. Every review to date is 5-star. His About page goes into more detail. He responds personally to every parent enquiry — feel free to email him before booking.
Is the business UK-based? Payment security?
Yes — UK-based, sole-trader operation run by Lakshan Satheeskumar. Tutoring payments are processed through Stripe (industry-standard, UK-regulated). Standalone notes go through Payhip (UK-registered platform handling VAT). All customer data is GDPR-compliant. UK consumer rights apply.
Will there be more topics added?
51 modules are live, covering the complete OCR H418 specification: 20 Criminal Law, 4 English Legal System, 6 Law Making, 6 Tort, 4 Nature of Law, 5 Human Rights and 6 Contract. Dedicated AQA modules are next. Anyone with a bundle or on a programme gets new modules free as they ship.
