[quote=Anonymous] JD (3 years) = LLB (4 years); LL.M. in a civil law system is three years full time and the LL.M. in American common law is only one year. In the U.S.and across the world, LL.M. and JSD or Ph.D. are higher than a JD. My American common law professor told me that JD is a practical field and the LL.M., SJD or Ph.D. are academic fields. All my American law professors hold only a JD degree and they teach JD and LL.M. students, but they supervise SJD or Ph.D. students. They address their students as "doctor" after their students graduated with an SJD or Ph.D. Btw, it is not proper to address JD as doctor, but those people with an SJD or Ph.D. worth addressing them as doctor because they deserve it.
