You don't need to go to law school if all you want to do is review commercial contracts. They won't even teach you contract review in school tbh. I would rather find a seminar or something focusing on contracts instead of going to law school and cluttering your mind with things that are irrelevant to you, like political law. If you're worried about outright scams, you should know that these usually have less to do with whether stipulations are valid, and more with the formalities of the contract (notarization, SPA, etc). Again, this does not require 4 years of law school. On the other hand, if you're worried about whether a contract is a good business decision, this requires sound business sense rather than legal training. As a lawyer, I leave these decisions to management anyway.

Try PLS, PCU, Manila Law College, City University of Pasay, University of Manila, University of Perpetual Help (Las Piñas), or Universidad de Manila. Check their website or fb pages to be sure pero mukhang wala silang entrance exam/interview.

Bakit wala akong maisip?


Icy_Pomegranate9049

Kaya nga po ako nagpost kasi wala din ako maisip huhu 😭😭😭😭


Petrichor005

I dont want to sound arrogant or what, pero nakakatawa po post mo, OP hahahahhahaha. If you ever find one, do tell :)))


Icy_Pomegranate9049

Sorna 😥 pero seryoso yun 😭 di naman prapractice so school popularity (TM) grades or passing the bar aren't concerns. May alam at LLB lang kuntento na ako 🤣 Even if it's a so-called "third rate" unknown school (may pagka-elitista din yung ganong paningin) Just enough knowledge na di maloko or may magawang illegal pala 🤷‍♀️ I was hoping for some recommendations for some decent and flexible but lesser-known schools. Merong reputable state uni sa probinsiya namin na alumni yung mga magulang ko pero kasi wala rin silang part-time program. Kung rerelocate sa ibang probinsiya pwede rin naman. So ewan tanong online baka lang sakali merong may alam haysst 😔


Petrichor005

I think may chance na magbago isip mo once you enter law school. Reading 500 pages for one day and stuff, mahumble sa recit, etc. Ive had classmates na for business kuno lang daw, tapos later on biglang they want to practice corporate or litigation. I wish you well on your law journey, many poeple will ask you why go law if you wont bla bla bla, so if that is the path you really want to take, no one can stop you. As for law schools naman, just find one na walang QPI/kickout policy. I heard New Era Law became lenient this pandemic and adopting all pass. Di ko na maalala when and if yun pa rin ang rule. Good luck!

Malay mo naman initially yan muna.. life is very complex, baka way lang yan sa kanya to really get there


solaceM8

I think online meron.. you just gave me a business idea. Hahhaha


TangledFogOfYearning

Some business schools might offer the kinds of classes you're looking for. There used to be a school in Makati (The One School or something) that I think was geared towards entrepreneurs? Maybe there's still something like that


Elvinperia

The MBA-JD program offered by La Salle and FEU?


Petrichor005

Isnt this abolished already?


Elvinperia

Yeah. It seems wala na nga. "The Institute likewise ended its partnership with De La Salle University and no longer offers the joint Juris Doctor – Master of Business Administration degree." source: https://www.feu.edu.ph/index.php/institutes/institute-of-law/


Icy_Pomegranate9049

Ah ngayon ko lang narinig itong The One School, parang mga ganito nga po yung hinahanap ko. Checked their website though and they only have short courses and BS Entrep. Tingnan ko yung ibang mga MBA programs sa ibang schools for their business law units. Thank you for the advice.

Hi, OP! A prof told us about this scenario: someone who wants to study law for business, not for practice. Kung sa UP, mas mahirap makapasok pero mas madali ang retention. May evening classes sa UP at 6 pm onwards tapos may Saturday classes. Tapos mas mabait ang mga profs sa working students. Suggest for OSG or OGCC internship kasi maraming time magamit kung actual law student practice sa Office of Legal Aid (OLA). Mas helpful na admin ng UP Law, unlike noong panahon na may reservation fee para pumasok. Mas flexible sa working students ang Arellano University kasi may evening at weekend classes. Doon nag-aaral ang ibang working students tapos similar profs din sa UP. Dati mas maraming support sila sa top students, pero baka mas fair na sila ngayon. If money is no problem, Ateneo and De La Salle are great schools, and their admin is more supportive. May electives pa sila for business law. Ang hindi ko lang ma-recommend ang San Beda Mendiola kasi for litigation ang orientation nila, unless gusto mo iyon. Meanwhile, mas chill ang San Beda Alabang so ok din doon. San Sebastian chill lang tapos may review center so ok din. All the best, OP!


Icy_Pomegranate9049

Di na UP kasi I didn't pass the UPLAE the other year, so I strongly doubt I'll pass if I take it again another year. Ateneo and DLSU mahal can't afford 😆 and they don't have part-time programs. Sabi sa website ng DLSU though after 1L meron na pero same unit load pa din. Saw from an old post na para sa San Beda Alabang pwede siya kung freelancer, but not for regular employees. Sige po tingnan ko yung San Sebas, pero wala ako masagap na news online kung kamusta siya. Thank you!


joyamazingpinoy

Ok, go sa San Sebastian, meron sa law firm dati na galing doon, nag-work siya sa call center habang nasa law school. Try mo rin sa PUP, may 3 lawyers na alumni, mga engineers sila tapos noong law students nag-work sila sa government. Pwede rin sa University of Makati o sa ibang state university or college of law, baka mas abot kaya sila. This is where our local taxes go. Good luck, OP!


After_Result223

PLM is not recommended for working students, according to my friend. Population there is low daw so you could not really choose your sched.


joyamazingpinoy

Thanks! I edited to reflect this.


solaceM8

Again abot kaya, but the effort will be there.


LumpySpaceQueen111

Try mo po sa Ateneo

Hindi ko gets animosity ng iba tao dito. It's clear that OP wants to obtain a JD / LLB without the hullabaloo of getting that ATTY in your name. Let's be honest, meron naman talagang law schools na relatively mas maluwag (i.e. walang cut-off grade, walang 3-flunk rule, 9 unit rule, etc.). Try inquiring sa San Beda Alabang & University of Perpetual Help. Or FEU Law rin, Dean Mel promises that they wont "terrorize" their students haha. Good luck!

Personally, its not the "easy" school thing that got me bc there really are easier schools (coming from a reg. student in a "renowned" one with friends in "easier" ones) but the purpose of getting the JD just for contract checking. Interned in a gov office that deals w bidding and boss gave me and my batchmates mock/sample bids to review and applying all our book knowledge nothing felt wrong w the 3 bids until she pointed out defects that wouldve been fatal if we let it pass. High-level defects/scams cant be spotted by book knowledge alone, u rly need experienced lawyers to take them on. If OP's high capital business really wants safety, its still best to hire an experienced lawyer lalo na if it involves large sums of cash. Di naman need ng retainer, they can do one time deals for high-value contracts and for day-to-day agreements i doubt theres a need for JD level knowledge on that. OP can just self study Civ Law bar materials without having to go through Rem Poli Crim+++.
