Overview

Key Facts and Outcomes

Because of the importance of criminal litigation, criminal lawyers spend more of their time in the courtroom and more time litigating constitutional issues than lawyers in any other field of practice.

University of Cincinnati's Criminal Law offers more criminal law courses than most students will have time to take. All students are required to take Criminal Law in their first year. Students interested in criminal law are strongly encouraged to take Evidence and Criminal Procedure I & II during their second year. There are a number of other course electives available to second and third year students. All courses may not be offered every year, so students should plan accordingly.
