LL.M. Tax

The Tax Law Edge

The Tax Law Program at SMU Dedman School of Law has a long history of preparing students to become proficient attorneys with specializations in tax practice, whether they go on to work for big prestigious firms in DFW, Texas and beyond, or go into public service to do important work on behalf of taxpayers.

SMU’s Tax LL.M. program is the second oldest and most influential programs in the country. Our graduates have had an incredible influence on tax and business in the United States – some have gone on to serve in government roles in the tax field, whether at the Internal Revenue Service, Treasury, or on Capitol Hill. A number of graduates currently occupy very senior government positions.
