How to become in house counsel?

To become an in-house counsel, you must have a law degree and have passed the Bar Exam in the state where you will be working. Some universities have programs that allow law students to work in the school’s in-house legal department, enabling them to gain experience before they graduate. Corporations rarely hire candidates who have just finished law school, so several years of experience working in a law firm will make you more qualified for an in-house counsel position. In-house counsel needs to have a broad understanding of many types of law, so continue to study and learn about many different aspects of legal codes.
