how can i become a judge in india after LLM
Hello Aspirant,
Qualifications to become a high court judge in India :
- A person must be a citizen of India.
- Must have an LLB/LLM degree.
- He/she should have held a judicial office in India for at least 10 years or should have been an advocate in any of the state high courts for at least 10 years.
You can also become a judge directly after completion of your Law degree by attempting the various Judicial Services Papers. Each state has its own Judiciary examinations. If you clear the exam and the personal interview, you will be directly appointed to the Lower Judiciary as a Magistrate.
LLM is not required though, after LLB itself you can start practicing or hold a judicial office or clear the judicial service exam and become a judge.
