Best Schools for Disabilities Law

Post by bagold » Sun Nov 13, 2011 1:27 pm

Hi guys,

I'm wondering if anybody has any idea of what schools are best for studying disabilities law. I will be graduating in May and starting the application process shortly after. I'm also interested in international human rights law.

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Yale, then Harvard and Stanford :)

Most people on this forum are going to tell you to aim for the top three if you want any career in human rights law. I don't know about disability law, but I assume those positions are few and far between as well. You need to get into the best possible school to get any shot at these careers.

I take it you don't really want to just do plaintiffs work (suing businesses for ADA violations, etc.).

Even so I'd go to the best school that gives you a chance at a legal job: Yale, followed by HS.
