As a graduating law student from quinnipiac university school of law, i have more litigation experience than most law students would ever dream of. i have worked a death penalty case, sat second chair on violent felonies, handled my own VOP for a violent felony, and defended civil suits, as well as a federal theft of cable case. My question is: since i cannot get a job anywhere in CT at this time in my chosen field: litigation, and it is all i want to do...is it better to take a job doing something else, or should i pursue an Llm in litigation? Will an Llm in litigation help me get a job? And if so, where is the best place to go (Temple?)

Skip the LL.M and save your money. Take and pass the California Bar, move to California, get a job as a DA or PD, and litigate criminal cases to your heart's content.
