Who Recognises TOLES?
The TOLES certificate is evidence of your level in legal English. Most of the world’s leading law firms recognize the value of the TOLES exams as part of your CV and several leading law firms use TOLES in their recruiting and assessment processes.
Law firms and organizations that have already entered candidates for the TOLES exams include:
- The Law Society of England and Wales
- Linklaters Oppenhoff and Radler
- Allen & Overy LLP
- Baker and McKenzie
- Clifford Chance Punder
- PricewaterhouseCoopers
- KPMG
However legal English is a very specific area of knowledge and you should not consider a certificate in legal English as a substitute for evidence of general English skills if you wish to study law in a university in an English-speaking country. Most good universities will require a certain score in an exam such as IELTS or TOEFL.
