The Western New England University School of Law Juris Doctor Program


Before becoming a professional in real estate management, Demetrios Panteleakis attended American International College in Springfield, Massachusetts, where he earned an MS in behavioral sciences. Demetrios Panteleakis later attended Western New England University School of Law, where he earned his Juris Doctor (JD).

Founded in 1919 as a division of Northwestern University, the college changed its name to Western New England (WNE) University in 1951. The school began a full-time JD program in 1973, and by 1979, the program had a permanent home in the Blake Law Center of WNE.

The Juris Doctor program at WNE helps prepare students to pass the bar examination with courses that include public interest law; legal research and writing; and bar preparation and academic success. Students who would like to specialize in areas such as estate planning, criminal law, or gender issues, can choose programs that focus on those specific concentrations.
