Hi, everyone! I am looking for some info about the equivalence between a French LL. M at Paris1 or at SciencesPo and the masters. Just to know, an LL. M. is the equivalent for a Master? LL. M. is available even if a do not own a Master1 or Master2 degree? Thank you in advance!

Hey!

An LLM is the equivalent of a Master 2. I believe that usually you can still apply for an LLM even if you only hold a bachelor's degree.

Thank you for your answer. May I also ask you if to access do doctoral studies it does not really matter what education I receive (bachelor and a master 1 or an LL. M or both), but that my higher education lasted at least 5 years (the right time to combine the level of education)?

You are welcome. Regarding your second question, in the French system I strongly believe doctorates are offered only to people who have a M2. For international students, the rules might be different though, you would have to check.
