Best Law Schools In the Philippines
List of Best Law Schools in the Philippines, to find where universities/colleges are best to study after graduating in secondary schools.UP lawyers aren't just competent but also have the honor and compassion for public service. That is learning the law in the grand manner.
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.
Anchovies have the supreme powers runs the Republic of the Philippines not UP must follows Anchovies Laws not UP Laws.The Presidents senators and all lower house must all anchovies anchovies have the rights to govern the Republic of the Philippines. Mabuhay and mga Anchovies! na nagmamahal sa bansa malaya and Republic of the Philippines and not a province of China.
USC is obviously one of the top law schools in PH. Though they do not produce many topnotchers, their passing percentage is always high, even higher than known and big law schools in Luzon. This is the number 1 Law School in Vizayas region.
USC continuously delivers in contributing competent law graduates and excellent board passers year after year.
Obviously, not to compare with any other else, almost all of the law graduates are very capable and competent.
Topnotchers. They produce quality lawyers by providing a privileged environment but the school also tries to keep them in touch with the grassroots.
Ateneo now has the biggest number of Top 10 Topnotchers among all colleges of Law in the Philippines. It has also been ranked #1 by CHED in terms of passing rate over a 10-year period. UP remains as #1 only in the number of first placer. But mainly because UP Law (the school of my brother) is more than 30 years older compared to Ateneo. Let us see what will happen for the next 20 or so years.
In this Administration the Ateneo Law School has dominated the Supreme Court for the first time. Government appointees are mostly Ateneans too. Justice Secretary Madardo Guevarra (Ateneo both in college and in Law School), leads the legal luminaries from Ateneo. Speaker Allan Peter Cayetano, Ombudsman, et al. Duterte has appointed more Ateneo lawyers than from his alma mater San Beda.
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.
San Beda College of Law's Justice Florenz Regalado remains the record holder for the highest average in the Philippine Bar Examinations, with his 1954 mark of 96.7%! Can you beat that!
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.
The University of the Visayas is an educational institution located at Cebu City, Philippines. It is billed as the first school in the entire province of Cebu who gained a university status. Where the best Law school because we have Teodoro Almase - Dean, University of the Visayas, 4th place who top the bar exams...
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.
My son graduated here year 2011 and passed the BAR exam year 2012. One of the hardest BAR exam with 17% passing rate.
Those who shaped the nation are graduates of this university.
New, yet placed no. 2.
Congrats!
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.
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.
Known for being the school of the working class intelligentsia, FEU Institute of Law is home to working students who, while taking up law, already contribute to national and social development -- in the academe, in business, finance and accountancy, in government, in the media sector, and all other groups of people in the private and public branches of society. Graduates of the FEU Institute of Law are not baby lawyers when they begin their law practice. They have been previously immersed in the battles of life. Hence, they are formidable warriors in litigation, arbitration, contracts, collective bargaining for both management and employees, commercial transactions, banking, finance, marketing, intellectual property, data privacy, persons and family relations, and all other branches of practice and human relations.
Great school. Just a few tweaks in the system. And placement of a well-deserved administrator. FEU will soar again like it was before. Don't imitate ADMU, create your own legacy, listen to the voice of your own students, nurture your own and not the transferees from other schools.
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.
The best among the bests!
