To become a member of bar council of India, you need to clear National Bar exam or the bar exam for respective state you want to become member of. However, only LLB degree holders are eligible for sitting in bar exams. Unfortunately you cannot do LLB from open university as there is no provision for it. LLB is a full time course and can be done only from an accredited university recognised by University Grants Commission. You can do Diploma courses in law but you would still not be eligible for the bar exam.

Asian Law College, Noida does not offer LLM.
According to their official website, there are only two courses that they offer that is BALLB and LLB and I have checked their website right now.
Even if they offer LLM you should prefer Tamil Nadu Dr. Ambedkar Law University because the fee is very nominal in Ambedkar Law College.
Secondly, you have variety of courses for LLM there and you can choose whatever you want.
There are nine departments. Yes, that's correct- nine departments such as department of business law, department of criminal law, administrative law, environmental law, constitutional law and a lot more.

Hello,
Here, you need to clear your thoughts. LL.B. course has honours papers with it. There you need to study two extra papers for special study. But LL.M. that is Masters in Law is itself a specialised course. There you can't have honours papers. So my friend LL.M. (Hons.) can not be a course. It can be only LL.M. specialised in either in Business Law, Constitutional Law, Criminology and Penology, etc.

Hey.
Both M.Phil in Law and LLM are Master's degree in law. They are pursued after completing the Bachelors in law either a 3-year course or a 5-year nature. The points of difference between the two are the nature of the course as well as time taken to complete it.
Prior to the change of rules by Bar Council of India, it took two years to complete LLM. But now, it just takes a year to complete LLM. MPhil, on the other hand, takes more time than a year.
LLM has a fixed curriculum that is taught in the universities I.e. there are mandatory subjects that are to be studied under the program. M Phil, on the other hand, is independent. It pro

Hi,
The major difference between the two courses is the nature of the degree, the time taken to complete the course and eligibility criteria to pursue either LLM or Ph.D in law.
Recently, the Bar Council of India has reduced the time of LLM from two years to one year. So, now it takes just one year to complete LLM. Ph.D on the other hand generally does not have a fixed time limit. It normally takes around 2-3 years to complete Ph.D.
While LLM is a Master's degree in law, Ph.D is a doctoral degree. Once you complete your Ph.D, you can use Dr. as a prefix to your name.
Coming to the eligibility part for completing LLM, you require a Bache

Hi Jaikrishna,
To study LLM abroad, you must complete your LLB. Many universities abroad prefer applicants with some work experience so having 1-2 years of of legal professional experience will definitely help. You must also prepare for tests like IELTS or TOEFL. There may be additional entrance tests but this will depend on which country or which university you are applying to. The admission requirements are different all over and you have to check accordingly.
