Find answers to your legal question.





Is there any way to become a lawyer without going to law school?

Is there any way like programs, tests that you can take rather then going to law school that will allow you to become a lawyer??

no

You have to graduate from College then an approved law school before you will be allowed to take the Bar Exam

I think Virginia is the only state you can take the bar exam without going to law school. It costs a lot to take the bar exam.


Denis
In the past it was possible to only take the BAR exam. Currently, you must graduate from an ABA accredited law school, pass the BAR exam for your state, and pass the MPRE (ethics exam).


Andre
Only a handful of states allow it such as CA and VA. I believe there may be a few more. Passing an exam, however, will not give you an advantage over one who's gone through law curriculum.

of course there is,

It depends on which country and what it is that you want to do,

You can do a diploma, distance learning and professional work experience all to accomplish your years in court,

Come discuss this on the site below, we can point you to some good resources... watch out for fake schools and mills. For now, try London University Distance learning....
