Graduate and Non-J.D. Programs

Enhance your skills and prepare to excel.
One of the smartest ways lawyers can get a leg up on the competition is by investing in themselves with advanced training in the legal profession. New York Law School offers five graduate degree programs that provide the specialized skills and knowledge you need to stand out in today's job market and in the years ahead.

The LL.M. in American Business Law offers advanced training to those holding J.D.-equivalent foreign law degrees who desire professional training in American business and commercial law. Students in the program gain grounding in the basic principles of American law and business, and can tailor the degree to their own areas of practice by selecting an area of concentration, such as Financial Services Law, Corporate and Securities Law, Real Estate Law, or International Business Law. The program is designed to meet the New York Court of Appeals requirements for foreign-trained lawyers who wish to sit for the New York State bar exam.

Through the Graduate Financial Services Program, students develop knowledge and expertise in the law, business, and regulation of the global financial services industry.

The Graduate Real Estate Program provides all students with a thorough grounding in the law, business, documentation, and regulation of real estate transactions, finance, and development. Online courses available.

The Graduate Tax Program enables LL.M. students to build a firm foundation in tax and pursue a concentration in depth.  The program emphasizes advanced training in tax research and practice-oriented writing, as well as practical experience through externships.

The Online Mental Disability Law Program provides the knowledge and tools needed to bring about effective change in the lives and treatment of people with mental disabilities.
