American Law Practice LLM
The Master of Laws in American Law Practice (LLM) is available to foreign-trained attorneys to supplement, update, or focus their legal training.
American Law Practice students are fully integrated into Denver Law’s JD classes in order to receive the benefit from a complete immersion into a US law school environment. The program emphasizes small class sizes to maximize individualized attention and enhance each student's academic success and professional development.
Please note that although the LLM in American Legal Practice provides a potential pathway for eligibility to sit for the Colorado bar exam, such eligibility is determined by the Colorado Supreme Court and not the University of Denver Sturm College of Law. Students are asked to review the relevant paragraphs of the Rules Governing Admission to the Practice of Law in Colorado found on the Colorado Supreme Court website, here. Among other things, graduates of the degree seeking Admission to the Practice of Law in Colorado with a law degree from a civil law jurisdiction have different requirements from students with a law degree from a common law jurisdiction.
