Offer To The CEO

Chapter 281 - Mid Week Part 3



Wednesday, continued …

Amanda continued, "I have spoke to the local law association. Due to the fact that you are a qualified lawyer in another jurisdiction, there is a course that you need to undertake. They run it in conjunction with the university and it supplements your existing knowledge from your degree and practice."

"It is tailored to cover the gaps in your knowledge of the law here so that you have the same knowledge as someone that has completed their degree here. The all you have to do is the same admission course as everyone else. All you have to do is sent to the local law association, the national legal education centre and the practice board your academic transcripts and details of what you have done in practice. They will then decide what you have to do."

"Thanks Amanda. Before I was injured I received confirmation from the Law Society. The process is similar. Your qualifications are assessed, and depending on the assessment you may have to undertake further study to get you up to the required education level. Before you are admitted, you need to undertake a training course, which is online including twenty-five days supervised placement, before applying for admission and having a lawyer move it. I can do both those. "

"While the law sets the supervision period, foreign qualified practitioners who have worked can apply for partial exemptions, but otherwise once you are admitted, you simply have to have your work supervised by a unrestricted practicing certificate holder, which I can do."

"Can you email me the information, and I'll get you the information for here."

"Not a problem. Now about this dinner?"

"Tan is speaking to your husband about that. And by the way, why to those idiots did you call me Madam Yao?"

"Make them think about who you are married to."

"Damn it Anna, I knew you had a willingness ti tease people but …"

"You cannot help think about my cleverness?"

"I do not know."

"Amanda, I am going to be a pain, I have a few things I really need to deal with, with Australia, and Yi told me that the computer on my desk is set to access their systems."

"Well here is your office key. I'm still getting sorted out myself, but pop in before you go.

Anna stood up and got herself into her office, logging on to the desktop, and into ANX's systems. She found dozens of emails to go through, and messaged Mr Williams, to let him know that she was going to try and do little bits of work, but where she was as a result of the injury.

One email grabbed her attention, which was about drafting a support affidavit for a file, that came through earlier in the day. It asked, if it was possible. Anna, decided that she could give thar a go, so entered into the client's electronic file and found the data. Anna became so engrossed in the task, that the next thing that she knew, Hou Yi and James were entering her office.

"Anna, come on, we have 45 minutes to get to the hospital for your review appointment." Said Hou Yi.

"You realise, she is engrossed in what she is doing and will ignore us until she is ready."

"James, grow up." Laughed out Anna "Seriously you two, all I need is five minutes, to finish this and send an email, close down everything and lock up, so sit down or get out."

Both sat on the chairs in the office, and four minutes later, Anna, was manovouring herself onto her crutches, to leave and go to the hospital for a review appointment.

Forty-five minute later, they arrived at the Hospital, and as James was getting out of the car he said "Now Anna, I am in charge, and I am not going to take an argument. You have already been on your feet for too long, so get into the wheelchair. And you will either do it voluntarily, or your husband and I will put you in it."

"Spoilsport. Fine, help me into it."
