I am a British self-employed immigration consultant in Canada. I want to strengthen my practice by becoming a lawyer: I am looking at either the JD program by Concord in California or the LL.B at the Univ of London.
Either way, I want to be admitted to the California Bar after my legal education.
The problem is: with an LL.B from London, will the CalBar require more education from me before I sit the exam? Does that mean I will probably need a LLM?
If so, is it possible to do an LLM in one year full time or two years max part-time?
What to do? What to do?
Thanks,
