Master of Laws in Trial Advocacy for International Students

Program Overview

The LL.M. in Trial Advocacy for International Students program at Chicago-Kent College of Law invites foreign attorneys and law students with divergent trial practice backgrounds to gain exposure to the U.S. adversarial trial system—a system somewhat similar to newly revised “oral trials” being adopted by many other countries.

Chicago-Kent’s reputation in trial advocacy—as well as its physical location in Chicago—provides a distinctive master’s degree in trial advocacy in a world-class setting. Students gain hands-on litigation experience through an externship with a government agency, such as the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office, Illinois Attorney General’s Office, or Cook County Public Defender’s Office; or a dispute resolution/mediation practice; or a criminal or civil litigation practice.
