The Juris Doctor (J.D.) is a professional degree and the first degree required to practice law in the United States. At Temple, students can earn a J.D. in three years in the full-time division or in four years in the evening and part-time divisions. Temple's J.D. program delivers the knowledge, skills, experience, and professionalism necessary to excel at the practice of law. Litigation Basics and Introduction to Transactional Skills courses get students on their feet within a few weeks of the start of law school, while our highly regarded Legal Research and Writing program helps them develop the strong practice skills for which Temple graduates are well-known. Diverse doctrinal, experiential, and integrated courses, all led by accomplished faculty, ensure that every Temple student has access to a world-class legal education, no matter what his or her area of interest. If you are like most law students and lawyers, there is a pretty good chance you will end up in some form of business law practice. Nearly 30% of the class of 2018 went into a business law practice of some form, the largest single practice area for that class. They will work at BigLaw firms in Philadelphia, Wilmington, and beyond, as well as in-house for companies, and in medium-sized, general business practice firms. But law students often dont know what business law means in concrete terms or, if they do, what they should take in order to prepare for that aspect of practice. This page and its links are meant to help you begin to think about this practice area and whether, if you are like most students, it will be in your future.
