Best Law Schools In the Philippines

UP Law RUNS THE COUNTRY. 7 Philippine Presidents and most of our country's senators and lower house representatives are UP Law alumni. Also, more than half of those who sat as the Chief Justice are UP Law graduates.

UP is proven by its history in producing competent lawyers!

Lawyers who are leaders in the public sector (senators, commissioners, etc.) and private sector (famous practitioners, business leaders, etc.) are mostly from UP Law. The faculty is comprised of respected lawyers in the country.

Most of the known lawyers nowadays came from here and are proven very competent

Obviously, not to compare with any other else, almost all of the law graduates are very capable and competent.

Oral recitations is rigid. No wonder graduates here are the best speakers across the country

"The best law school outside Manila! "

2015 top 2 and 8
2016 top 1, 3, 7 and 8
2017 top 2, 4 and 7

Where are the Imperial Manila Schools now?

For the past years, Ateneo is one of the best performing law schools here in the Philippines.

Because I love this university

One word - TOPNOTCHERS (plural)

Because crush ko si junsi agas

San beda is very strict with their academics with high standards to produce globally competitive and top notcher students. San Beda produced many notable alumnae especially in the field of law and politics.

I'm not a graduate of san beda college but based on my research, san beda college is the best law school in the Philippines.

Who's the topnotcher now.

Simply the best. Always on top, nawawala and UP and Ateneo, but never San Beda. #BedanWay

New, yet placed no. 2.
Congrats!

Team Green Archers

My son graduated here year 2011 and passed the BAR exam year 2012. One of the hardest BAR exam with 17% passing rate.

The oldest university in the Philippines and in Asia, the University of Santo Tomas was founded in 1611 by Manila Archbishop Miguel Benavides. The Faculty of Civil Law was founded shortly after in 1734 and is arguably the first law school in the Philippines. The Universidad de Santo Tomas Facultad De Derecho Civil has produced 10 revolutionary heroes, 4 presidents, 3 vice presidents, 7 chief justices, countless senators, congressmen and notable justices and judges.

Those who shaped the nation are graduates of this university.

PLM's College of Law is definitely a newbie in this field as compared to the well-known law powerhouses (UP, Ateneo, UST). However, it has a good percentage of passing graduates every year that adds to the prestigious status of PLM.

In PLM, you're learning from the bests!

As what the other comment said, that PLMs College of Law is definitely a newbie, no doubt it's a yes. There is a big BUT on PLM being a "newbie". I am an Undergrad from the university itself (Social Work), and I highly praise the College and also the passers for their performance of the recent examinations due to the fact that, the professors/instructors were not just professors/instructors itself, these individuals are prominent in their respective field, no joke (since some of these include prominent lawyers and even active and former Supreme Court Justices). What caught up my attention is Atty. Jose M. Roy III (not sure if he's still the Dean of the College), and it's just wow.

Silliman, which offers a Juris Doctor program, has remained one of the country's superior law schools. It boasts of a faculty that include some of the country's legal luminaries, distinguished practitioners and foreign law professors. Over the past ten years, it has produced two topnotchers at rank fifth and seventh.

The center of learning in the visayas and mindanao region

Silliman is the best law school

I am 14 years old girl and I want to be a professional lawyer and base in my research or opinion if you want to be a great lawyer you need to earn Juris Doctor Degree

Since its first crack at the bar exams in 2006, the PUP College of Law has steadily been performing above par in the bar examinations, chalking up passing percentage rates way above the national passing rates.

Sa bar exam, lumalaban!

New Era University rank number 1 in "Best Law Schools in the Philippines" and rank no.2 in "Best Law Schools in US" next to Harvard University rank number 1. In the recent Bar Exams, from October 7, October 14, October 21 to October 28,2012, New Era University is far from other Universities/Colleges if we compared to passing grades in Bar Exams. New Era University defeat University of the Philippines in the last parts of Bar exams, October 28,2012. Its leading ahead to University of Santo Tomas because University of Santo Tomas belong to 5th group of oblong of United Nations while New Era University belong to 1st group of 1st triangle of United Nations, New Era University and University of Santo Tomas, the 2 Universities, have title names in United Nations in ABA Approved Law Schools operating in the US, while the other are nothing, it shows the 2 Universities have International license to practice here and abroad or title to practice profession in the government. ...more

To the one with the long comment on New Era University. Please DON'T SPREAD SUCH INFORMATION WITHOUT ANY STRONG FACTUAL BASIS. Look at the remarks on the comment itself, -13. Don;t misinform the public, please.

Id like to enroll here
