Description

Foreign law school graduates in the United States, especially LL.M face unique challenges compared to their J.D. counterparts.

  1. The big law myth for LL.Ms
  2. The issues LL.M students face
  3. Why more employers should invest in LL.M graduates
  4. How LL.M students are an untapped trove of experience for employers.
  5. Are law schools complicit in perpetrating the LLM to BigLaw dream?
