Canada Law From Abroad  - A division of John G. Professional Services Inc.

John G. Kelly, President of Canada Law From Abroad, is a legal thought leader with extensive international teaching and consulting expertise in the new legal services paradigm. He is committed to the development of an international education bridge that will enable Canadian students to take advantage of cutting-edge innovative legal education in the U.K., the birthplace of the common law system and home of the world’s great law schools.

The new legal services paradigm is global. It encompasses knowledge bases that extend well beyond the traditional discipline of jurisprudence and conventional practice of law. International education in U.K. LLB degree programs and dual disciplinary professional careers at the graduate LLM, MA Law & MSc Law levels that leverage traditional disciplines like law, medicine, finance and politics are creating new and exciting professional legal careers.
