St. John’s has the nation’s most extensive bankruptcy program.
Our highly successful LL.M. in Bankruptcy program offers more than
two dozen specialized bankruptcy courses taught by leading
practitioners, judges and academics. Our graduates practice with
top firms and clerk for leading judges throughout the country. In
addition, we publish the American Bankruptcy Institute Law Review,
the nation’s premiere bankruptcy journal with a circulation of
approximately 11,000. We also sponsor, jointly with the American
Bankruptcy Institute, the annual Conrad B. Duberstein Bankruptcy
Moot Court Competition, which brings teams to New York from law
schools throughout the country to argue major current issues in
bankruptcy law and culminates in a banquet attended by more than
600 leading practitioners, academics, prominent judges and
students. Other bankruptcy activities at St. John’s include an
active Bankruptcy Law Society and the St. John’s Institute of
Bankruptcy Policy.
