Is it too late to start thinking about become a lawyer when you in your 30's?

Is it to late to start thinking about become a lawyer when you in your 30's? My friend is thinking about going back to college to get his bachleors degree in business admin. Then he is thinking about going to law school. He is 32 years old. Is he to old to start thinking about becoming a lawyer? Can someone start becoming a lawyer when they are 40 years old.

Well, if it is too late someone should tell my 30s, 40s, and 50s classmates, lol.

It's absolutely not too late for him to start the process of becoming a lawyer. There are people much older than him who've been successful and started college at an even later time in their lives. Being an older law student allows him to bring a perspective that will serve him, his future classmates, and future colleagues well.

Yes, but remember that there are younger competetion out there especially in class. Those young brains with his middle age brain wont coincide with eachother. Maybe online classes and staying focused.
Of course you can go to law school at that age - the average age of many law schools is in the late twenties and he will hardly be the only 30 year old in law school. Good Luck!!! to him
No, it is never too late to realize your dream~~your passion.

If your friend actually wants to be an attorney, I say GO FOR IT!!!!

I am 51, and just recently enrolled in college to become a paralegal/criminal justice majors/

I had already decided if I needed to go to law school to prosecute my son's murderer, I would do that.

Never let your dreams die.

Good luck .
it's never too late! tell your friend to GO FOR IT! there is a lawyer who is in my office who was previously a surgeon, and at 62 years young, went back to law school. he adores his new, lucrative career.

one theory is that your friend's compitetion will be with people who have an edge based on youth. a better way to examine this is that he (or she) will have a competitive edge based on experience.

good luck!
It's never too late to pursue your dreams. Your friend isn't too old. Life experience makes a big difference in statements of purpose and letters of recommendation, especially when these are compared to someone with zero life experience (students who are fresh out of high school with only internships and part-time jobs on their resumes).
