Hey Pharrell,Sun Aug 17, 2008 12:44 PM Just wanted to know as to whether i would be eligible to practice in Australia once i am done with my LLM. I am a LLB degree holder and a practicing advocate in India. I would also be grateful if you could provide me info on as to which is the best uni to do an LLM in IP. Thanking You, Kind Regards. |

Hi,Tue Sep 09, 2008 11:20 PM Sorry for intruding but I see Pharrell has yet to respond on this. The quick answer to your question is that an Austrailan LLM does not allow you to practise law in Australia. You will have to complete certain LLB/JD course within a standard Australian law degree and thereafter fulfill the practical requirements. Can't really comment on the IP LLM as I am not familiar with this specialisation! I undertook a cross-institutional course with Monash Law School and know that there are many students specialising in IP over there - however, I must admit I am not too impressed with their administrative end of things. Cheers, greg Cheers, Greg |
