Employment Discrimination Lawyers and Labor Law Lawyers

Do I need law studies except from psychology to get into Forensic Psychology?

I know that someone could become a Forensic Psychologist only by obtaining a degree in Psychology (and taking a MSc degree in the field, etc.). Would it be helpful to also obtain a degree in law? Is it possible to increase your employment possibilities? And/or become a better professional?

Interesting question.... But I would think that a minor or second major in Criminal Justice would serve better. A law degree (that is law school) would offer an education in the practice of law.

However, if the goal is to be a forensic psychologist, your major strength should be in psychology with the addition of a basic working knowledge of court procedures, investigative process, and legal jargon. That sort of knowledge would be available through a criminal justice curriculum.

Hope that helps.
