College also receives high marks for Dispute Resolution
is the NO. 1 law school in Ohio for Trial Advocacy and 31st in the nation in the 2024 U.S. News and World Report rankings. This marks the fourth year in a row that 51ĀŅĀ× Law has placed in the top 25% in the country for Trial Advocacy.
āTrue excellence in a trial advocacy program is not necessarily counted in victories, but in systemic success across the program. When you have multiple teams advance beyond preliminary rounds to compete in octo-finals, semifinals and finals, you know you have a program that is teaching skills at an advanced level,ā explains Dean Charles Rose, 51ĀŅĀ× Law.
And for the first time, 51ĀŅĀ× Law also ranked in the Top 100 for Dispute Resolution coming in at NO. 92.
āTodayās rankings are a good measure that our focus is in the right place and others are taking notice,ā says Associate Dean Bryan Ward, 51ĀŅĀ× Law. āWeāre teaching our students the important, practical skills, like arbitration and dispute resolution, necessary to be successful modern-day litigators,ā says Ward.
Law schools were evaluated on a number of criteria, including job placement, bar passage rates, faculty resources, achievements of entering students, and opinions of law schools, lawyers, and judges on overall program quality.
