The Juris Doctor Curriculum at the University of Louisville
Michael Meyer serves as an attorney in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where he manages his own practice. Prior to establishing himself as an attorney, Michael Meyer graduated with honors from the University of Louisville Brandeis School of Law.
The University of Louisville’s 90-hour JD program caters to the needs of both full-time and part-time students. Students can choose between the three-year, full-time study program and the four- to five-year, part-time program.
Full-time students begin with a first-year fall and spring semester of 30 hours of study, while part-time students receive a reduced course load with additional options. Required courses for first-year students include lawyering skills, contracts, torts, criminal law, property, and civil procedure.
After the first year, students can select from a range of upper-level courses and explore different legal disciplines. These courses allow students to customize their education and pursue a concentration in a particular area. In addition, upper-level courses provide opportunities for interdisciplinary study and externships.
