"Studying at Católica Global School of Law has redefined my legal career. As a Portuguese trained lawyer, I was accustomed to solving legal problems using a national, traditional approach. However, the digital economy and dissolution of physical borders have created a demand for lawyers that think globally. For those aspiring to have a differentiated international career or to understand the intricacies of the new “era” of globalization, this type of program is not merely an option, but a requirement. To that end, the LL.M. in a European and Global Context went beyond my expectations. Not only was I able to rediscover my own hometown while making friends from different parts of the world, but I was also able to understand, through them, different legal perspectives and engage in intellectually stimulating conversations and debates that shaped the way I see and practice law. The innovative “Total Law Approach” encouraged by a first-class faculty allows each student to go beyond the materials assigned, play with “what if” questions and redesign legal solutions to today's problems. Also, the learning atmosphere is extremely stimulating. Both students and professors work together to challenge you to go beyond your own preconceptions, biases and segmented view of the legal world. The whole environment revolves around exceeding your own limits and turn yourself into a better legal professional, critical thinker and citizen of the world. I could not recommend this programme enough and I can state, without a doubt, that my professional path would not have been the same without it!"
