NJ LLM and work?


josh34

Hi,
I'm a foreign lawyer. I'm planning to go to US, pursuit a LLM, then work and live in NJ as a lawyer, hopefully.
Could anybody please help me with some basic questions :

1, Can I get lawyer license with LLM in NJ, without JD?
2, If I study Taxes law, can I work on Health laws?
3, Do I have to join a firm? Can I work by myself?

Thanks.

1) go to NJ bar association (do the research cause you are lawyer!)
2)how do you think?
3) depends on what visa are you here, how much money do you have, what connections, and how you plan to attract clients
All these after and IF you'll pass the bar
