Too old to be a lawyer?
<p>I’m nearing 40 years old, based in Australia and I would like to steer my career towards cyber crime and litigation involving technology.</p>
<p>To practice law, obviously I need to do an LLB/Juris Doctor followed by PLT.  Is 40 a little late for any of this?</p>

<p>Legally: No.</p>
<p>See Part 4 of the Age Discrimination Act 2004 which...</p>
<blockquote>
<p>...makes it unlawful to discriminate against someone on the ground of
age in respect of the following:</p>
<p>(a) employment and related matters;</p>
<p>(b) education;</p>
