How old are you when you get your lawyer license? -

Hello there, Usually how old when you officially can get your lawyer license? 30? 35? I am 24. I am thinking about JD degree. But I am wondering usually how long it takes to be a real lawyer. Thanks,

My son just turned 25. He will finish law school this spring and will take the bar exam shortly after. Law school takes 3 years following obtaining your Bachelor s Degree.

I have known lawyers who were admitted to the bar at age 24 and others who were over 50. In the u.s. it takes a bachelors degree (usually about 4 years) and then a Juris Doctor (usually about another 3 years).
