How long it takes to finish an LLB (Bachelor of Laws) depends on the legal education system organization of the country where study occurs. Students in India who choose an LLB after finishing their undergraduate studies need to study for threeacademic years. Students can finish their course to become lawyers more quickly through direct enrollment in a five-year integrated LLB program after finishing school at 10+2 level. The three-year LLB program addresses core legal subjects as its main focus but the five-year integrated degree combines legal study with subjects from multiple disciplines creating advantages for career growth across different legal areas.
Countries like the United States and Canada demand college graduation before admitting students to their three-year Juris Doctor (JD) professional law school. Students who want to become lawyers will need to spend between three to five years completing their LLB plus study pathways.
