Concord Law School of Kaplan University

The best law school may be the one that comes to you

Founded in 1998, Concord Law School was the first institution to offer a Juris Doctor (JD) degree earned wholly online. After merging with Kaplan University in the fall of 2007, it is now the only online law school with prestigious regional accreditation.

Concord provides a rigorous, comprehensive legal education with curricula that lead to either a JD or Executive JDSM degree. Instruction is theoretical and practical, emphasizing a critical understanding of how the law functions in society, and how lawyers function within the legal system. This flexible, user-friendly online platform is ideal for students who lack the time or resources required to make law school their only priority. Concord believes a law degree should be accessible to any qualified student with the ability and motivation to succeed.

Concord Law School serves students from all 50 states and a dozen foreign countries. More than a third already have advanced degrees, some from prestigious institutions such as Columbia, Harvard, Yale, MIT, UC Berkeley, Duke, and the University of Chicago. Students include educators, small business owners, CEOs, physicians, bankers, pilots, police officers, military officers, city planners, nurses, dentists, consultants, accountants, sales representatives, engineers, real estate developers, stay-at-home parents, and more.

Juris Doctor

Objectives

  • Develops the students' abilities, skills and perspectives in legal fundamentals, professional and practical skills, and critical thinking skills.
  • Develops the skills required to analyze a client's presenting legal dilemma across a wide range of legal disciplines; research applicable case, statutory and regulatory law; develop an appropriate legal strategy to resolve the problem; fully represent clients; and understand the responsibility to comport themselves at all times with civility towards the court and bar, upholding their moral and ethical duties as lawyers.
  • Prepares students to pass the bar examination, in California first and other states as allowed under bar admissions rules, and practice law as a licensed attorney.

Individuals seeking to practice law and develop the greatest range of career opportunities should enroll in the Juris Doctor program.

Graduates are eligible to apply to sit for the California bar examination. Upon passing the bar examination and fulfilling other statutory requirements, graduates become eligible to practice law in the State of California. Concord's Juris Doctor alumni may also apply to practice before most federal and other governmental agencies.

Beyond the traditional practice of law, a licensed attorney has the knowledge, skills and credentials for employment in a broad spectrum of career opportunities.
