The LL.M. in Trial Advocacy for International Students at Chicago-Kent College of Law welcomes foreign legal professionals and law students from varied trial practice backgrounds to explore the U.S. adversarial trial system—a framework bearing resemblance to modern oral trial reforms implemented in numerous nations.
Chicago-Kent's renowned trial advocacy program, combined with its prime Chicago location, offers a unique master's degree in trial advocacy within an exceptional environment. Participants acquire practical litigation skills through externships with government entities like the Cook County State's Attorney's Office, Illinois Attorney General's Office, or Cook County Public Defender's Office, as well as through placements in dispute resolution, mediation practices, or civil/criminal litigation firms.
