I am interested in law school. I have a juvinile recoerd. Minor infractions such as milichous mischief, and minor in posetion of alcohol. I have no felonies or adult record. Will these juvinlile charges prevent me from getting into law school, or getting licenced by the state?
 
They won't completely prevent you from becoming a lawyer. But it's important that you disclose every single legal problem you've had in your law school applications and bar applications. If they find out about one arrest that you failed to report, you're out. It's worse to lie than to be honest up front.
