It's not the mountain we conquer... but ourselves

I think you need to do some research and figure out what your ideal places to study would be.  Then, I would buy a book from Borders/Barnes n' Noble about scholarship opportunities.  I would start applying to law schools, apply for financial aid through the university, for grants, and for scholarships outside the university.  You need to make sure you stand out as something special when you're applying, through your personal statement, your LSAT, your grades, etc.  I hope you have these good marks.  I think you'll be able to study for a very discounted rate if you do these things.  But you first have to apply and then work on the money situation.

WISDOM comes from years of study, travel and life experiences!  You'll see one day. 

As I interpret this question, it is where can he/she get a FREE law degree, anywhere in the world.

I don't think there is anyplace offering free law degrees. 

In the united states, it takes 3 years of full time study to get a law degree (Juris Doctor degree, formerly called an LL.B degree prior to the 1970s) and that is after having a bona fide 4 year Bachelors degree with good grades, good LSAT Test Score and good recommendations, strong essays and good other credentials.

It is very common for American Law Students who go to a private law school or one where they pay "Out of Stete Resident tuition" to accumulate a debt of $100,000 or more over the 3 years of law school."

I am sure there is no "free lunch" alternative in USA.  I doubt there is one anywhere in the world.   

Scholarships and grants can reduce the cost of a law degree but that does not normally pay all or the majority of the tuition (there are a few exceptions for a few people with off the chart grades and lsat scores, such as at NYU law school) and so while these can help they don't make it "free".  And the tuition (even if they covered it) is only a part of the cost.    Add books, computer items, supplies, food, groceries, etc and there is a lot more cost over the 3 years .. too much to think of it being made "free" EVEN if you did have one of those very rare full scholarships.

Online researching might help you. I believe that as long as you have good academic standing, you will be able to apply for a scholarship. Try searhing online for good schools.

The only countries to offer a tuition free LLB are Sweden and Germany.  Fluency in the native language is a must because all courses are taught in the native language.  Learn the language and pursue a tuition free degree.

In your situation, requiring an English medium, there are some scholarships available for UK LLB degrees to cover tuition fees and other countries who have lower tuition because they are new to the fee payment system.

For those looking for a lower tuition JD, Peking University's School of Transnational Law is the first American law school in China.  It is the first American law school outside of the United States to seek American Bar Association accreditation and is founded by the former president of Cornell University.

I got my law degrees in California and paid for it the old fashion way: Student loans.

There are many places throughout the world that offer the LLB (Hons) Law degree however I am afraid it will not be free to you unless you manage to successfully obtain a sponsorship from a solicitors firm, which you can apply for, or you may be able to receive funding by way of a hardship loan from the local council student loans board (in UK) or similar.  Many university are currently providing students with hardship loans as student loans are not processing and being distributed out at a fast enough rate.  If you are serious about doing this degree (I assure it is not easy!) then look into sponsorship companies and hardship loans to fund you, you may get lucky!

Not to be too critical, asking about FREE law school is laughable, getting the cart before the horse.  Your first task is to get accepted, and I speak from experience. You need to take a good look at the admissions profile of the schools you might like to attend, see if you can even compete with others wanting a seat. Law schools used to publish this info back in the early eighties, and I believe still do. You don't necessarily have to start law school this coming academic year, so no matter what anyone tells you, there is opportunity to improve the chances of acceptance over a period of time, if you know what to improve, and how. If you are unwilling to invest in yourself, you'll not find an admissions officer who is sympathetic to you. You should be prepared for rejection.

As to financing, there is no free lunch. Often, you'll find fees are lower at public institutions, but admission to private law schools costs much more, because money is a key prerequisite, and admissions requirements are not so stringent. It's a tradeoff. There are many more applicants to public imstitutions, and you'll have to compete with the best and brightest to go at lower cost. There are many applicants for each available seat.

If I were an admissions officer, and saw your question, I'd reject you out-of-hand, because you have shown that you cannot or will not write a decent  question that addresses a clear objective, and also indicates that your wish is only a wish, and you are completely uninformed as to the admissions process, financial as well as economic issues, not forgetting academics. Law school is no walk in the park, except for the most brilliant of students. If you like staying up every night til all hours, no weekends off, no social life, etc for three years, then have at it.I wish you luck!
