Master of law(s)
This is to correct my previous answer - Socratis Vavilis pointed out that "Master of Laws" is a current diploma in N. America - see http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/LL.M.
But Master of Law (singular) is also used.
So you take you choice, NewCal ...

LLB / Law Graduate
In the UK a LL.M is a postgraduate degree. A Maitrise is a graduate degree. these are different qualifications. The closest equivalent in England would be LLB (even if this is a 3 year degree and Maitrise is a 4 year degree). In the US it depends on the University but for the avoidance of the doubt, you could also write Graduate in Law or Law Graduate
