Kim Kardashian becomes a Lawyer after 6 years—Here’s how she did it

After six years of legal education, Kim Kardashian said on Wednesday that she had finished her law school.

On her Instagram stories, Khloe Kardashian posted pictures from her sister’s private ceremony. Kim’s tutors, CNN political analyst Van Jones, and the graduate herself all gave statements at the ceremony.

During her address, Kim Kardashian stated, “All of you guys have been on this journey with me.” “It did start with Van and me.”

When she started this trip years ago, the reality TV personality claimed to have been “dumbfounded” by the state of the legal system.

Kim Kardashian started her law studies in 2019, telling Vogue magazine that she decided to pursue legal education because she was passionate about jail reform. California’s “reading law” approach permits aspiring attorneys to engage in apprentice-style study under a licensed attorney rather than attending a traditional law school, despite the fact that the entertainment magnate never earned a college degree.

The 44-year-old completed the Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam (MPRE), which is necessary to be admitted to the California bar, according to an E! News story from March.

Attorney Jessica Jackson, who mentored Kim Kardashian during her academic career, stated during the event on Wednesday that “six years ago, Kim Kardashian walked into this program with nothing but a fierce desire to fight for justice.” “A mountain of case logbooks to read, determination, and no ivory tower shortcuts or law school lectures.”

According to Jackson, the inventor of SKIMS studied law for more than 5,000 hours over the course of six years, putting in 18 hours a week, 48 weeks a year.

“That’s time she carved out raising 4 children, running businesses, filming television shows, and showing up in courtrooms to advocate for others,” Jackson stated.

Speaking at the private ceremony, Jones also acknowledged that Kim Kardashian started her education during a challenging moment, “when it wasn’t trendy, when it wasn’t cool.”

At the luncheon, which included placemats of her flashcards, Kim Kardashian toasted the achievement with a number of her children, sisters Khloe Kardashian and Kourtney Kardashian Barker, and other friends.

On her Instagram stories, she also posted a picture of her late father, Robert Kardashian, a well-known attorney who defended O.J. Simpson.

“This is years and years in the making; I’m so proud of her,” Khloe Kardashian said in a video that was uploaded on Instagram Stories about her older sister. “This was really inspiring and motivating.”
