It really depends on how much time you have to commit to school. It is possible in some states to get admitted to law school without an undergraduate degree, but very unlikely. Typically (in the U.S. at least) you have to first complete your Bachelor's degree first, which typically takes four years if you go full time. Sometime during those four years you will take the LSAT, which you will need to get into law school. Following your undergraduate degree, you will need to attend law school. If you go full time, it will take you three years. Then you will have to pass the bar examination for the states you want to practice in.

In summary, if you go to school full-time and take the LSAT and bar exam in a timely manner, it will take you about seven years to become a lawyer.
