Tax Law Emphasis Program

Download the Tax Law Brochure (PDF)

Chapman is unique in legal education by offering a Tax Law Emphasis certificate as part of the Juris Doctor program. Offering core tax courses and rich clinical experiences, the tax law program provides interested students with a solid foundation in the field of tax law. Students are also permitted to enroll in tax law courses in the LL.M. in Taxation program while pursuing their JD degrees.

Job Placement

The primary benefit of the program is job placement. Our graduates have been hired by the prestigious firm of Paul, Hastings, Janofsky & Walker. Other grads have been hired by the IRS National Office Large Case Division. Only nine attorneys work in this litigation division. Many more of our grads are working for tax law firms and the IRS.

CAS

  • Competition Success

    A team of our law students came in second in the nation in the American Bar Association’s 2004-05 “Tax Law Challenge” sponsored by the ABA’s Young Lawyer’s Section. To achieve this success, our students worked very hard on a complex, transactional corporate/ compensation tax matter.
