Hello how are you today?
I'm great. Did you want to talk about law schools in the US? Law schools allow people to receive a professional degree in law.
I'm actually attending law school to become an attorney.
Wow! That's awesome. Are you trying to get your Juris Doctor degree?
Yes I am and actually my daughter just started law school and she is also trying to become an attorney.
That's the highest degree you need to practice law, so I am happy you're reaching for it. And your daughter too.
Thank you very much I'm very proud of her for going to school.
schools include an Accelerated JD program, and a part-time program (usually completed in four years).
Other degrees that are awarded include the Master of Laws (LL.M.) and the Doctor of Juridical Science (J.S.D. or S.J.D.) degrees, which can be more international in scope. Most law schools are colleges, schools, or other units within a larger post-secondary institution, such as a university. Legal education is very different in the United States from that in many other parts of the world.
of Jurisprudence or Juris Doctor (J.D.), a Doctoral degree, the pursuit of which students undertake only after having completed an undergraduate degree in some other field (usually a bachelor's degree). The law school program is considered to be a professional school program and upon graduation you receive the distinct title of Doctor (although most states strictly regulate the ability of attorneys to style themselves "doctor").
Research degrees that are awarded include the Master of Laws (LL.M.), Doctor of Juridical Science degrees (J.S.D.
