Moved up two spaces to #58 overall out of 192 accredited law schools (counting unaccredited schools, it’s well over 200).
We had the following specialty rankings:
Intellectual Property #6
Health Law #7
Part-Time Law #9
Environmental Law #21
Trial Advocacy #31 (an 11-point increase from 2021)
Business Corporate Law #44 (an eight-point increase from 2021)
Dispute Resolution #47 (a five-point increase from 2021)
Tax Law #49 (a four-point increase from 2021)
The only disappointing thing is that aTm has now passed us in the law school rankings at #46; UT remains clearly tops in TX.
At #58 overall, UH tied for #3 in TX with far more expensive Baylor and SMU; we beat both in several specialty areas.
So what you’re saying is UH doesn’t pump the same amount of money or in what aspect are we lacking we can’t be #2? I think last year we were 2 spots in front and now they’re 12 spots ahead
I actually attended UHLC as a visiting student, and can say that the quality of the classrooms and buildings was way lower than I expected. Also did not help that the place smelled like sandwiches due to the Subway in the basement!
Hard to compare ourselves to TAMU Law School; again, the TAMU name has higher brand recognition than we do at this point. As the overall reputation of UH improves, so will the reputation of the UHLC.
With that said, lawyers know that UHLC is a great school that produces great lawyers. This is important for job prospects.
