Well just like any other career firld in life anyone could do it and be good at the job. The question is how long does it take to get a piece if paper that says you have a degree in law? That would be 6-8 yrs depending on how fast you go through school.
First have a bachelors degree, then on to law school.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
