For a decade, New York Law Journal readers have voted NYLS’s LL.M. in Taxation Program No. 1 in the category “Banking/Bankruptcy/Tax LL.M. Programs.”
The program is open to qualified lawyers who hold a J.D. degree from an American Bar Association-accredited law school or an equivalent foreign law degree. It includes concentrations in Corporate Tax, Estate Planning, International Taxation, General Taxation, and Tax Litigation. Its rigorous core curriculum is complemented by a wide range of elective courses.
Students include established tax professionals seeking to broaden their knowledge of the field; tax lawyers working in international, regional, and, local accounting firms; financial product designers and advisors; business executives; estate planning and administration professionals; legal advisors to entrepreneurs, family businesses, and not-for-profits; real estate specialists; practitioners preparing themselves for a mid-career transition; and recent law school graduates.
Many students pursue the program part-time while working for major corporations, banks, insurance companies, and law firms of all sizes. Classes are held on NYLS’s Lower Manhattan campus, easily accessible by virtually all major transit lines.
