Great question!

To be a lawyer, you need to attend a 4-year college. After that, you apply to law school, which is an additional 3 years of school. After completing law school, you take a test call the Bar, and if you pass that, then you're a lawyer.

I know it sounds like a lot of school, but it's a great way to build skills, get to know interesting people, and develop a career path with a lot of options!
