What Is a Lawyer?

Legal Requirements to Be a Lawyer

Lawyers must go through law school. Every state has standards that must be met before a person can be licensed to practice law.

Before being able to practice law in most states, a student must pass a fitness and character review. To be considered for a law license, you must be approved by a committee that investigates background and character.

Lawyers must also:

  • Have a bachelor's degree or its equivalent
  • Complete three or more years at an American Bar Association-accredited law school
  • Pass a state bar test, which can last as long as two or three days; these exams test knowledge in the selected area of law.
  • Take an oath to support the laws and the state and federal constitutions
  • Receive a final license from the highest court in the state (state Supreme Court)

  • How Much Time Do I Have to File an Auto Accident Lawsuit?
    In most cases, you have around three years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit. The deadline can be prolonged if you discovered the injury later. If you are planning to sue a government establishment, you may be required to file a claim within a few months after the accident.
  • If the Accident Was Somewhat My Fault, Can I Still Win My Case?
    Yes. However, you may not win the maximum possible settlement amount. Under Colorado's fault principles, your damages will be decreased in proportion to your fault. So, if you were 30% at fault, then your damages would be reduced by that amount in the claims. Keep in mind that the court determines fault.
  • What Is the Required Minimum Auto Insurance In Colorado?
    Legal auto insurance coverage is: $25,000 per injured victim $15,000 minimum in property damage $50,000 per accident, no matter how many victims have been affected Since Colorado is a "fault" state, this means you can file a claim against the defendant driver's insurance carrier. However, if the at-fault driver is uninsured or underinsured, there are steps you can take to get around that.
