Master Law Programs
Programs and Degrees
What is Involved with Studying Master Law Programs?
Master of Law programs or "LL.M"s are generally designed to offer further
education within a particular field of interest. Most times they are offered in
conjunction with a student's chosen field of study as a JD (Juris Doctor or
Doctor of Law) or soon afterward. There is a range of subjects, which may appeal
to students; one of the most popular is international law. As travel times
between countries diminish and trading opportunities and travel increase, the
risk of breaking foreign laws rises. These are often complex and poorly
understood by those unlucky enough to have breached them. This could well be the
reason behind international law's popularity.
Specialties may include contracts, matrimonial law, tax, international law,
comparative law, and research methodology. Coursework or research and a
significant dissertation is often a requirement. Bear in mind that if
international law is of particular interest a healthy understanding of a foreign
language is usually a prerequisite.
What Careers Can I Follow with this Training?
Surprisingly, many people do not concentrate on a legal career, but use their
skills, experience, and expertise to enter a very wide range of careers. A
non-legal first degree often paves the way. You may be interested in business
administration, or you might be attracted by government and politics. Further
training is generally required if you decide to return to education as a
lecturer or teacher, or if you want to become a judge.

Legal Studies

While lawyers assume ultimate responsibility for legal work, they often delegate many of their tasks to paralegals. In fact, paralegals—also called legal assistants—are continuing to assume a growing range of tasks in legal offices and perform many of the same tasks as
lawyers. Nevertheless, they are explicitly prohibited from carrying out duties considered to be the practice of law, such as setting legal fees, giving legal advice, and presenting cases in court. |
