How long does a Lawyer need to be a Judge?

Answer 1

Most judges are qualified attorneys. Which means a 4 year bachelor's degree and the three year law degree. But those that appoint or elect judges don't have to give it to someone that has a law degree. They could appoint a high school drop out, but it wouldn't go over very well, and they would probably fail any confirmation hearings.

Answer 2

Generally, you need a minimum of a bachelor's degree and a Juris Doctorate from an accredited law school, which requires approximately seven years of post-secondary education (four years for the undergrad degree, followed by three years of law school). You also need years of appropriate experience, good people skills, and healthy political connections.

In most cases, a judge must be an attorney. This means 3 years of law school after completion of a 4 year bachelor's degree.
