What qualifications do you need to become a lawyer? |
[Edit] |
Answer
undergraduate degree, law school, pass state bar and find job
Answer
The requirements vary by country.
Generally, an applicant needs to have graduated from high school, and be able to pass the entrance exams for law school at a University. A four year course of study, followed by a 2 year period of being a " law clerk " working directly under a practicing lawyer is a minimum in North America.
Being called to "the Bar " means that a person is now a fully qualified lawyer, able to practice law in their jurisdiction.
Answer
A bachelor's degree, then go to law school for about 3 years (if you attend full-time)..then pass the bar.
Answer
You need a law degree in most states and then you need a license to practice law. The only 'training' in most places is what you get on the job.
