For those of you who are thinking of studying American Law, do you think reading books is enough preparation? A lot of people seem to think so. However, because the US, unlike Japan, makes use of the case law principle in its legal system and because of the complexity of the relationship between federal law and state law, systematic self-study can be very difficult. Even if one reads judicial precedents in earnest, it is possible to miss important points.
Itojuku’s American Law Studies Courses offer lectures that help Japanese students increase awareness of their weaknesses in understanding US law. Even those just starting to learn about American law may commence their study through Itojuku’s courses and be able to acquire the necessary and sufficient knowledge needed for work. In addition, those who have already studied American law can take advantage of our courses as an opportunity to organize their knowledge more systematically and to cultivate a deeper perspective.
With the use of leading cases in prominent/ noted/ notable/ renowned fields, and by being conscious of one’s perspective and reading of legal systems, legal terms, and case law, it is possible to learn effectively within a short period of time.
