I have a law school related question?

Question

I am an undergraduate at a United States university. After getting my degree in four years could I go to law school in Ireland (I would remain there permanently)? Is it even called law school in Ireland? I heard something about King's Inn in Dublin. Would an irish "law school recognize my four year american degree from a relatively decent college (Catholic University of America). also how long does law school take in ireland or it's equivalent. I am of course referring to the Republic of Ireland. Thanks.

Answer 1

How about, try contacting the school in Ireland you wish to go to? They'll have the answers.  You'll spend $50-$100k on school...you can't afford a $10 phone call?

Answer 2

"The Honorable Society of King’s Inns is the body which governs entry to the profession of barrister-at-law. The Society provides courses of education and training for students, conducts examinations and confers the Diploma in Legal Studies and the Degree of Barrister-at-Law. Only holders of this degree may be called to the Bar of Ireland by the Chief Justice and admitted to practise in the courts of Ireland as members of the Bar of

Ireland." (from the King's inns website.)

To apply for the barrister-at-law degree, you need to have an approved law degree first.  This takes 3 years at Irish universities.  If you are studying for a law degree right now, I have no idea whether it would be approved or not.  The best thing to do would be to contact them, contact info is on the website at http://www.kingsinns.ie/website/index.ht...
