Beschreibung des Programms

Who are we?

California Western School of Law (CWSL) established in 1924, is a non-profit private law university in the United States located in San Diego, California. Accredited by the American Bar Association since 1962, it is the oldest law school in Southern California.

The Latin American Institute of Law and Justice officially known in Spanish as Instituto Latinoamericano de Derecho y Justicia is an academic institution that offers four programs in The Americas: the accelerated one year Master of Laws in Spanish (LL.M), ACCESO Capacitación (oral litigation workshops), Concurso Nacional de Juicios Orales en México (Mexican Moot Court) and Red Inocente (Innocence Project).

Master of Law in Spanish (LL.M)

This is an academic program designed for Spanish speaking lawyers, primarily from the Iberian Peninsula and Latin America, who look for new opportunities to learn the necessary skills, techniques, and abilities of oral litigation.

Characteristics of the LL.M

  • All 10 classes are entirely offered in Spanish
  • It is a one-year online program which begins annually in August
  • The main focus is to teach litigation skills in the civil and criminal areas
  • Two mandatory in-person conferences in San Diego (in the beginning and at the end)
  • The global cost of the program is $9950.00 (USD) which covers tuition and academic material. Note: The travel, stay and food cost is NOT included for the two mandatory in-person conferences.
  • The Master of Law (LL.M) diploma is issued by CWSL
  • Professors who are lawyers with years of experience in the criminal system of the USA
  • No previous experience in oral litigation is expected from our incoming students

Informationen über das Institut

California Western School of Law is committed to using the law to solve human and societal problems. Our mission is to train ethical, competent and compassionate lawyers, representative of our diverse society, who can use the law effectively and creatively.

We recognize that, in the 21st century, the rapid rate of change will accelerate and create further problems. We also recognize the pervasive perception, and partial reality, that the legal system and lawyers have helped to create, rather than solve, the problems our evolving society confronts.

While continuing to graduate lawyers well-equipped to practice law, we also seek to graduate creative problem solvers committed to the improvement of our legal system and society. Our graduates will not merely react to problems, but will anticipate them and be ready to devise innovative and responsible solutions to serve the needs of their clients and the broader community.

Further, by contributing to legal scholarship, participating in public deliberations about legal matters and serving as a community legal education resource, California Western School of Law will make significant, measurable contributions to the solution of problems in our community, our society and our world.
