Hello Aspirant!

Step 1: Earn a Bachelor's Degree

According to the BLS, individuals must earn bachelor's degrees prior to enrolling in law school. Undergraduate students have the freedom to major in almost any field, although the BLS recommends interested students take several courses in government, mathematics, English, history, communications, and economics. Potential majors that are directly related to the field of law may include criminal justice, legal studies, or political science, but students are not required to major in any of these areas.

Step 2: Pass the LSAT

Acceptance into law school is often contingent upon how well students score on the Law School Admissions Test (LSAT) , a national exam administered by the Law School Admission Council, Inc. There are five sections to each exam, each of which includes multiple-choice questions. An additional non-graded section contains an essay question, but this section is mainly used as a writing sample that potential law schools may review. Each student's score indicates how well that student can analyze questions, make logical decisions, and comprehend advanced concepts. Step 3: Complete Law School

In most cases, earning a Juris Doctor degree from law school takes three years to complete after the bachelor's degree program. The first year is filled with structured course requirements and may include classes that cover torts, constitutional laws, contracts, property law, civil procedure, and criminal law. All students spend their second and third years in elective courses related to their career goals. Many law schools offer concentration options to help students figure out which courses will provide the best career preparation. For example, concentration options may include science and technology, business law, social change, public law, general practice, or advocacy training.

Hope this helps you :)

Hi Shruti,

There is a proper process to become a legal advisor. First you will have to clear LSAT exam or law entrance exam and then once you get your admission done in a good college focus on your academic performance. After you get a degree you can sign up for a practice licence and get some experience under some expert or some organisation. Therefore, you can start with your professional consulting career and in future your own business as well.

ALL THE BEST!!!
