To become a lawyer in the USA you normally have to have at least a Bachelor of Science degree, or a four year degree that is similar - then you have to take a required number of "law school" classes before graduating (usually another four years)- which will give you a Juris Doctor degree.

After you have met these requirements you have to apply for "Admission to the Bar" , be interviewed as well as approved by the Bar Committee, and then take the States "Bar Exam" - ranging from 1 - 3 days depending on which state you are taking it in - and pass it!

After that you are "certified" to practice law - usually by the Supreme Court - (or a Court in the State that you passed your Bar exam in that has been appointed and selected for this purpose.)

I can not answer for any other country as I only practiced Law in the state of Ohio. -

Good Luck!

What do you want to be? A lawyer in Venezuela or in the US? Your question is quite confusing. Ask your local chamber of justice for more information........
