To be an injury lawyer you need at least four years of college, and then you will have to go to law school, which usually takes about two or three more years. If you are in the United States, before you are admitted to law school, you will have to do well in a special exam called the Law School Aptitude Test (LSAT). Once you are admitted to law school, you can focus your study on a specific area, like personal injury law, and become an expert in it. It may also be useful for you to work in a law office, so that you can get some experience before becoming a lawyer-- some law offices hire clerks, or you can get training as a paralegal.
