Here, an ex-police prosecutor turned law student discusses why
he has decided to swap ends of the bar table.
On this episode of The Protégé Podcast, host Jess Feyder speaks
with Joshua Kelly, who has spent two decades as a cop and held the
role of police prosecutor, about why he decided to begin a law
career.

to practise from.

him and motivated him to make the change to law.
Mr Kelly also talks about where he sees his legal career going and
where Australia’s prosecution system might be flawed.
