In most jurisdictions you will need to complete a number of years of university courses, and then apply for law school. If you are accepted, you will have a couple more years of study and then you can apply for the bar exams. If you pass these exams you will be qualified to conduct business as a lawyer.

On the other hand, you can represent another person, at their request in a judicial procedure, but you cannot present yourself as a member of the bar if you are not. In a serious case such as murder or drug smuggling you could be rejected by the judge and replaced by a more qualified person (at least in Canadian law). In less serious cases such as minor traffic offences or civil suits, you would likely be allowed to proceed.

It doesn't matter what you study, as long as you pass the bar exam. It's also essential that you're bloodthirsty for money with minimal empathy for your client's actual needs.
