Online Law & Legal Degree Programs

Online law schools and legal degree programs, including Juris Doctor and more.

LawyerThe world isnt only clamoring for Perry Mason-esque trial defense attorneys - it also needs talented individuals for tax, labor and corporate law. The population is booming, meaning more businesses with more legal needs, and therefore more job opportunities. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of lawyers is expected to increase as fast as average through the year 2014.

Your greatest job competitors, ironically, are not just other aspiring attorneys. To slash costs, companies are now using paralegals and accounting firms to perform formerly attorney tasks. (cont.)

How can you go the extra mile in this competitive legal environment? By honing your perseverance, creativity and reasoning ability through an accredited online Legal Studies degree program.

While only our ABA-accredited Juris Doctorate degree programs prepare you to sit for a state bar examination, our Associates, Bachelor's and Masters programs prepare you for managerial and legal positions in business, government and non-profit organizations, as well as court reporting.

You'll immerse yourself with constitutional law, contracts, property law, torts, civil procedure, legal writing, research and communication. The judicial system and the role of the legal profession in criminal and civil proceedings will come to life through unique lecture, case study and teaching delivery formats.

The tough part may be trimming down that specialization list: Health care, intellectual property, venture capital, energy, elderly, antitrust, or environmental law? That is why most programs emphasis a broad liberal arts education - aspiring patent lawyers should study engineering or science, and future tax lawyers must have extensive knowledge of accounting. Some capstone courses are required in the form of an internship, thesis or exam.

These programs are designed with your busy schedule in mind, and in about three years, youll complete your degree while learning through instructors who balance theory and real-world applications. Explore the online Legal programs below and request more information today. The respective college or university will help you make sure that a particular program is best for your educational and career goals.
