WHY IS THE LLM WORTH IT? ALUMNI TESTIMONIALS

“Day one, when I walked into a large sophisticated real estate development project of the developer I was working for, I would sit in a meeting and I wasn’t lost. I understood a lot of broad base issues, knew the language, and could see where the landmines were. One of the assets of the LL.M. program is that the professors are the lawyers working in this select area."

Anthony Soto, LL.M. '18
VP of Development and Investments, Fort Partners

“I chose to pursue this LL.M. program because I have a passion for learning and a commitment to staying knowledgeable in my area of practice. As my real estate law practice continues to grow, these classes help me support my associate attorneys better and ensure that we are providing the best possible service to our clients. The RPD LL.M. program certainly helps graduates with the knowledge and skills needed to excel in the field of real estate law.”

Barbara Brown, LL.M. '25
Owner, Brown & Kimpton, P.A.

“The program has been an invaluable experience to me in my law practice and really helped to pull back the curtain on practical insights into real estate development through a city and region that leads the country on innovative development. The ability to learn from so many well-regarded practitioners has been amazing, and as a distance learner, the connections I have made with current and future practitioners through this program will continue to serve me well into the future.”

Michael Ricci, LL.M. '20
Principal and Director, Rampart/Wurth Holding, Inc.

“The RPD program was a great experience that went beyond academics. It gave me the chance to learn from and connect with some of the most knowledgeable real estate professionals in Miami. I truly realized how valuable those connections were after graduating, when they helped me take my first steps in the real estate market. To me, the RPD program is more than just an LL.M.—it's a community that you become part of for your entire career.”
 
Felipe Vervloet, J.D./LL.M. '24
Attorney, Aspuru Caraballo Faria P.A.

“Having had the chance to go through the details of [complex real estate transactions] has made me more confident, practical and inventive. I enjoyed being exposed to different real estate laws and perspectives, best practices, and real cases, all of which has expanded my capacity to execute with judgment, knowledge, and confidence. In sum, I could not be more grateful for the RPD LL.M. because earning this specialized Master’s degree has made a dream of mine come true.”

Marcela Carmago, LL.M. '16
Associate, MCAbogados 

“The RPD Program was an invaluable experience, offering a perfect balance of advanced classroom instruction with ample networking opportunities. It deepened my knowledge and skills as a practicing real estate attorney, and it opened doors I was not expecting to open. Looking back, enrolling in the RPD Program was one of the best career decisions I’ve made thus far.”
