It looks super shady IMO. The price is pretty nice for a JD in the US though... You could also look at an LLB from the UK, for example, The Open University or The University of Law (They have conversion courses, 1-2 years). Not sure about the exact requirements, but some states accept it. Some US schools may let you transfer into a JD program too, so you could skip at least 1 year. The University of Arizona is an example. I think you should do some serious research before you commit to a non-ABA accredited program.
The ABA does not accredit online law schools. In Cali, you can take the bar and become a licensed attorney by attending an online law school. It's the only state with this policy.
Just because you can, doesn't necessarily mean you should... It's still several years in school.
Cali has a lot of policies that are drastically different from the rest of the nation. They have many unique ways to become a lawyer. Will an LLB from the UK allow you to be eligible to sit for the Bar in Cali? Will it allow you to become licensed? 2 years there is still several years in school.
