A career in LAW????????

Question

I am still in school, and when i grow up i would like to do a job in Law. i have been doing research and have found out that first of all of course i have to do all my A-levels (by the way which should i choose to help qualify me for a job in that subject) and after that you are meant to go to university and get a Law degree and after that you go to law school, and after that you do training. Is this true. Thanks for your help.

Answer 1

In Scotland the way it works is you go to University for 4 years to get a law degree and then you work for 2 years within a law firm (spending 6 months in each department, e.g. court, corporate) as a trainee. After the 2 years you are fully qualified as a Solicitor.
