Hello,
Yes, it is possible to practice law even at the age of 40. To become a lawyer in India, you must complete a law degree. Since you have already completed SSC, you will need to finish your 10+2 first if you have not done so. After that, you can take admission in a 5-year LL.B program. If you already have any bachelor’s degree, you can directly join a 3-year LL.B course. There is no upper age limit for studying law in most universities, and after completing LL.B, you must clear the All India Bar Examination (AIBE) to get your Certificate of Practice. Age is not a barrier, so you can definitely pursue law now.
Hope this helps you.
