Ans: Hello Mahesh,

To begin with, thank you for contacting us. I am glad to hear about your son’s interest in pursuing a career in Law overseas after he completes his 12th grade. As an answer to your query, I would like to inform you that taking in account the changing landscape of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its effects on a broad range of professions, including law, your son’s desire to practise law overseas seems encouraging. Remember, with the introduction of technology, major changes are being brought about in the legal arena. Artificial Intelligence (AI) may change some facets of the legal profession, but it also creates new opportunities in areas viz., data privacy, legal tech, and AI ethics in the legal system. It would therefore, seem that the future of law will be both difficult and fruitful, requiring flexibility as well as a fusion of legal knowledge with technical developments.

You would be glad to know that outstanding programs are offered by a number of countries to those aspiring to pursue law overseas. The University of British Columbia, University of Toronto, and McGill University in Canada are regarded for their law schools. Coming to European countries, the University of Cambridge, the London School of Economics (LSE), and Oxford University in the UK, as well as Leiden University in the Netherlands, are highly regarded. Law schools at Australian universities viz., Australian National University (ANU), the University of Melbourne, and the University of Sydney, are also renowned. As an answer to your query concerning the path available to pursue legal studies in these aforementioned countries, I would like to tell you that this path generally entails earning an undergraduate i.e. Bachelor’s degree, usually in any area of study, after which one needs to complete a legal degree i.e. Bachelor of Law (LLB) or Juris Doctor (JD), and then possibly undertake specialized programs or internships. In order that your son chooses the program that best resonates with his passion and objectives, I would recommend that he conducts an extensive study on particular program offerings, the competence of the faculty, as well as the curriculum’s primary emphasis.

Ans: Hello Sarath,

To begin with, thank you for contacting us. I am happy to know that your daughter is about to complete her 5 year LLB course. To answer your question first, I would like to tell you that your daughter’s professional objectives, interests, and future ambitions, will determine whether she pursues an MBA (Master of Business Administration) or an LLM (Master of Laws) post completing a 5-year LLB program. If your daughter intends specializing in a specific field of law, such as human rights, intellectual property law, international law, or corporate law, an LLM is a great option. Your daughter’s knowledge can be enhanced and her competitiveness in the legal profession can be increased by pursuing this degree. On the other hand, if business, management, or corporate leadership is what interests your daughter, she can think about pursuing an MBA as this degree can help her develop these abilities. It broadens your daughter’s employment opportunities beyond traditional legal practice as well as is advantageous for business consulting, corporate strategy, or management positions.

You would be glad to know that there are a number of prominent universities abroad that are renowned for LLM. They are Yale Law School, Harvard Law School, and Stanford Law School in the USA. In the UK, prestigious universities like University of Oxford, London School of Economics (LSE), and University of Cambridge offer top-tier programs.
