First of all u need LSAT to apply for J.D. program in any U.S. law schools. Normally, it takes 3 academic years to complete the degree.

For fast-track, as far as I know, Northwestern and Kentucky offer 2 years J.D. program, in case you are interested.

Thanks for your reponse; I am loathe to have to do a further 2 years study..agghh; maybe I should turn my 8 years experience into something else ? Cheers Arakat

You may appear for CA bar examination; and if you are admitted, you may also practice in Florida in the area of "Immigration laws".
