J.D. Study in London
“As director of the Notre Dame London Law Program, I have the opportunity to help students add a unique element to their American legal education. Students who come to London do so because they appreciate the increasingly global aspects of practicing law in the United States. No longer is international law of interest only to multinational corporations that typically have a need for international expertise. Any practitioner now may need to be conscious of how easily a problem in domestic relations, intellectual property, or even crime can involve an international dimension. A failure to be conscious of this element may in the future prove to be not just undesirable, but reflect a flaw in a legal professional’s training.”
—Geoffrey Bennett, Director of the Notre Dame London Law Centre
