I want to study in UK for LLM, but maybe practically choose Continental Europe (Netherlands, Sweden or Norway) as it is a bit more affordable for me.
Is this a bad decision?
UK or Europe?

Although its not much of an answer, Id say it depends and it depends on a unsettling number of things your background, your plans for immediate and long-term future, your budget, your chances of securing funding and so on and so forth
A straightforward advice, without any consideration to either of the above factors and based solely on my experience as a Brazilian lawyer*, I say the extra money you save for going to Continental Europe doesnt pay off in the end Here many would see an LLM from an university in Continental Europe as a one-year holiday leave Im not saying theyre right but merely stating a fact.
* This sentence looks like it came right out of a legal opinion or any other document of that kind

Your advice is sound and reasonable. As someone from outside Europe, the tuition fee in UK is really on my limit (I worked for 2 years to save up money for master study).
But can you tell me, if I study in UK for the master, will be pay off? I would like to take a legal career, will a LLM in UK consolidate that choice?
THanks very much!!
