I'm interested in pursuing a career in the legal profession. I'm most likely innocent and naive, but I believe I can do so with an ordinary university degree + time (as opposed to a law degree). I have a B.A. in Medical Science, and I was wondering what would be involved? Thanks!

If you are thinking of the barrister route, you would need to do the 2 year Diploma in Legal Studies and then the 1 year Barrister-at-Law Degree.
