Perks to an LLM
jonlevy:
I already do. Anyone with 2 years PQE from certain states like California can take the bar exam for England and Wales. The former QLTT which I took was a three day open book exam in New York. Surprisingly there were only three or four other takers. They now have a new exam called the QLTS which I am unaware of. Ireland offers a similar QLTT exam for California attorneys. Not all state bars have a relationship with these countries' law societies though.

interesting, so a non-aba CA grad can have an advantage a T-1 grad from another state very likely will not have?

Has to do with the California bar's reciprocity agreements:
