The CLELA drafts legal documents, including case theory, skeleton arguments and submissions to the courts. They may also act as a Commissioner for Oaths..

Depending upon which area of law they work in, CLELA lawyers may be involved in litigation in the High Court, litigation and advocacy in the County Courts, advising and representing husbands and wives with matrimonial problems or clients accused of serious or petty crime.
