LLM details

(Querist) 23 July 2008 This query is : Resolved 
Can i pursue LLM instead of MBL. i have done graduation in B.com - general & finished CA. Firstly can i pursue LLM thru correspondence as i have not done LLB (As most of the institutes may be asking LLB as criteria for joining LLM). am i eligible for becoming a member of Bar Council of India incase i pursue LLM through correspondence. are there any institutes which offer LLM in correspondence.

LL.M is the masters degree of law, in other words it is a post graduation degree in law.

If you do not have a degree of LL.B, nobody can give you admission in LL.M

for the ones who have LLB/BL , Kakateeya University, Warangal 506009 is offering LLM (Constitutional Law) through correspondence.

You can't take admission in LLM as you have not done LLB (the degree course).
Mr Saxena rightly suggested you in this regard.
Guest (Expert) 24 July 2008
I differ from the other members, you can do LLM through correspondance where the only criteria is age, if you have crossed 21 years of age, many universitites offer LLM without LLB.

But without a three year regular LLB degree, you cannot enroll in the Bar Council of India, and you donot come under Advocates Act.

L.L>M> course only offered to those candidates who has qualified in ll.b degree. For MBL any degree is eligible.
SANJAY DIXIT (Expert) 24 July 2008
I also think so Mr Arunprakaash.

Dear KOTRESH M G

BGL (Bachelor of General Laws)- This is a two year offered by quite a few universities. Graduates opt for this and if they complete three years, they get a LLB degree.
