Why is it that nobody teaches you how to read legal cases as a law student? You get chucked in right at the deep end by law professors, who automatically expect you to know how to navigate these complicated passages of legal text and be able to analyse them effectively. Fortunately, there is a structured process that you can use to help you quickly find all the relevant details you need and summarise those cases into a few short bullet points!

00:00 Introduction
