This isn’t true anymore. The vast majority of states require a Juris Doctor. Only 2 or 3 states don’t require a degree, and even these states impose restrictions.

First learn how the common law works, how our judicial system is set up etc. I think a pretty good book is Law 101 by Feinman. It’s a primer on these subjects and the legal profession.

Beyond this, I guess just pick out a few casebooks on various legal subjects and start reading. I have no idea why anyone would willingly subject themselves to this though. You might get a decent understanding of the historical development of American property law, contract law etc. But of what use is this?

The fuck you gon do learning about present estates and future interests?
