Starting legal studies is an exciting time. However, the student might also feel a bit apprehensive about commencing a new and challenging programme of study, joining a new institution, approaching new ways of working, facing new expectations, and meeting new people. Whether they are moving away from home for the first time, changing degree courses or changing their career, some nerves and concerns are completely natural. This chapter looks at both the transition to university and an introduction to the law school itself. It explores some of the different challenges that may be faced and provides strategies to meet those challenges. It also explains a bit more about the law school and the early days to help the student to settle in as quickly as possible.

The article studies the legal mechanism preventing and resolving a conflict of interest in civil law. The Russian public law pays much attention to the prevention of competitive interests but there are still no studies on a conflict of interest in private law. The authors have written this article to consider the relevant legal studies and draw their conclusions. Methods: The authors used the methods of comparative and systemic analysis, synthesis and scientific research to examine such a legal concept as a "conflict of interest in private law". The study aims at analyzing the category of competitive interests in relation to private law, determining its prerequisites, reasons and possible solutions. The authors have concluded that a conflict of interest often causes corporate conflicts among parties involved in corporate relations. Moreover, this type of conflicts arises due to the realization of individual property interests and the possibility of one person to influence the other, for example, a conflict between majority and minority shareholders.
