Join us for a presentation and Q&A session about the Law School’s LL.M. programs for the 2012-13 academic year:

LL.M. in Bankruptcy
St. John’s offers the nation’s only LL.M. in Bankruptcy program and we accept only about a dozen highly motivated students a year. Our intensive and comprehensive curriculum spans the gamut of bankruptcy practice. We also offer the J.D./LL.M. joint degree program, where you can complete both your J.D. degree and your LL.M. in Bankruptcy degree in as little as seven semesters. The joint degree program can reduce by half both the time and expense of obtaining your LL.M.in Bankruptcy Degree.

LL.M. in Transnational Legal Practice
This program is designed for American and foreign students who have a law degree and want to gain additional specialized skills in transnational practice, including public international law practice, cross-border transactions and transnational dispute resolution.

LL.M. in International and Comparative Sports Law
Offered in collaboration with the Instituto Superior de Derecho y Economià (ISDE) of Madrid, this program is entirely unique in the U.S., comprising one semester of highly focused and intensive academics at St. John’s, followed by a semester practice placement with a sports law firm, sports agency, professional or major college team, league or association headquarters or other sports-related entity.

LL.M. in U.S. Legal Studies for Foreign Law School Graduates
This is a very focused LL.M. program designed specifically to prepare foreign-trained lawyers with the training and skills necessary to qualify for and pass the New York Bar Examination. For foreign-trained lawyers wishing to practice in New York permanently or to enter transnational practice in their home jurisdiction, admission to the New York Bar is essential.
