I'm a finance major and thinking about going to law school and getting into securities law. I really don't understand the program though. Would I still be getting a Juris Doctor? Would the curriculum be standard common law taught or could the entire thing be business related? Thanks for any insight!

To become a lawyer, you need a law degree and be admitted into the bar AKA be licensed to practice law. That means you have to be prepared. You get a general legal background, the JD, then you get licensed, the bar exam. Then you find work and specialize. Where you work, will open doors to your specialty. The most prestigious firms do the kind of work you'd like to do. Aim high (ivy league) and do very well (law review). Then research your prospective employers well.
