Hello,
In brief you might want to consider these pointers:
1. Consider which states in Australia you might be interested to practice law in.
2. Have a look through the website of the universities within that state. Also, research on who are the authorities that regulate the admission of foreign law graduates.
3. Send in your LLB to the authority or university (your choice depending on State) for assessment.
4. For students from Pakistan, you will usually have to complete a large number of 'academic' courses with Australian LLB/JD students. Thereafter, as you have no practical experience, you will most likely have to complete the 'practical' component comprising of either a 6 month Practical Legal Training diploma or a 1 year clerkship with a law firm.
I hope that this helps. Please do, however, double-check the accuracy of my general response.
Cheers,
Greg
