A regulated profession: plan your qualifying route before you pick a country.
To practise as a lawyer you need two things: a law qualification, and admission in the country where you want to practise. Your route depends on where you start. After HSC you can take an undergraduate law degree (LLB) in the UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, Malta and the UAE. In the US and Canada, law is a graduate degree (the JD), so you need a bachelor’s first. Graduates in any subject can also convert: a graduate-entry LLB, a law conversion course or a JD. An LLM is a specialist master’s for people who already have a law degree; on its own it rarely makes you a practising lawyer.

You and AI
Routine tasks are being automated. Graduates who use AI well do the higher-value work and shine.
The career ladder
Typical steps. Titles vary by country and employer, and some roles need a local licence or registration.
Not a named priority on the national lists we track. Demand depends on the city and employer, so an adviser can help you choose a destination.
Lists change often and are not a promise of a visa. How to use them →
