Dr. Abdullah Ahmed Alkhayat

Dr. Abdullah Al-Khayyat, a professor of law at the Faculty of Law at Kuwait University, completed his first studies in the Salmiya area, then graduated from the Faculty of Law at Kuwait University with a Bachelor’s degree in Law, and followed it with a Master’s degree in private law at the same university.

He joined the Kuwait Institute for Judicial and Legal Studies, and worked as Deputy Public Prosecutor for a period, until he joined the Kuwait University delegation to complete postgraduate studies in law in the United States with a master’s and doctoral degree, starting from Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., on the east coast, and finishing at the University of Berkeley in California on the west coast. From 2016 to 2021, during that period he formed impressions of what law is in the United States as a field and wrote a study that he put into this book to cover the needs of the legal community in our Arab region, which is unfamiliar with the basis and goals of studying law in the United States.
