Because there is no upper age limit for doing LL.B. Hence you can pursue the LL.B. Course. Most of the admission in LL.B. Course are based on entrance test conducted by respective Universities. There is no short cut for doing the LL.B. Course and if someone are managing, than can be unfit for practcing as lawyer. So 3 years LL.B. Regular is the best option. The TNDALU and its affiliated colleges are also offering the 3 years duration LL.B. Course on the basis of Bachelor degree marks. Hence you can pursue the LL.B. Course as per yours requirements.

Dear Student, There are many types of student in the law school. Let me talk about 3 most common ones.
1. The enjoyers
They are the one who takes life lightly and enjoy the most of it. They usually attend less classes, or attend the one in which the teacher is strict and have a big group of friends who roams whole city day and night. They do assignments at the 11th hour and sometimes skip that too. They are simply having time of their lives.
2. The nerds

In my opinion you should perhaps take a look at what area of law you think you'll go into, and then do a brief study on how the available majors will allot special information to you that will assist you in doing it. You might also wish to take a look at how those majors are currently fairing with Law Schools, what are the percentages currently being accepted in those various areas. But I would really recommend that you actually will, in all likelihood, like the areas you wish to study, because like it, or having a kind of an affinity to it, will most certainly increase the likelihood that you will do better than if you simply had a ho

Dear Student. A top notch lawyer can earn higher than a top notch surgeon. Practicing law as a profession has no upper or lower limits. Your income depends upon your clients' paying capacity, city you live in, your standard of work and your accomplishments, lawyers appearing in courts for Rs. 100 to Rs. 5 lacs per hearing, in Delhi.

I believe an average lawyer with great people skills and understanding of human nature beats a very good to excellent technical lawyer with poor people skills. Because you have to know how people think, what motivates them, what they are afraid of or what they will respond to if you want to be a great lawyer. The lawyer who knows the law backwards and forwards. You know all the procedural traps and can navigate the rules of evidence like a magician. But if you don't know how to make a point with a judge, or tell a jury a story, or recognize when your client is shading the truth, you will fail. Lawyering is an art. It is a skill set. It

Dear Student,
Yes, being a lawyer is a good career, provided one sticks to basics and ethics and have true professional attitude. A client comes to a lawyer, who in their eyes, are capable of delivering positive results for which they are spending money on him. If the lawyer shows interests in money but is not diligent enough, he is a cheat. Before long he would be known more as a money extorter. The lawyer should be a shelter (after he receives money) and should not be seen as a butcher in action and always asking for money. There is common complaint against lawyers. According to them, the lawyers adopt the dishonest means which are t

Dear Student,
The best way for a 12th student to prepare to become a lawyer is by taking all of the standard college-prep classes: English, foreign language, math, Science, and social studies.

You also need to be able to read complicated statutes and court decisions. Foreign language is mostly important because learning a foreign language will make you more attractive to top colleges. Its also a good discipline for developing your intellect. Maths is necessary because the bottom line to almost everyth
