Hey there,
Well, practising business law does not require a rocket science. The process for practice is same as any lawyer would go through.
You need to have a valid degree and a valid licence by the Bar Council.
However, in order to become a good lawyer in this field, I would suggest having additional qualifications apart from just a law degree.
Also, a BBA stream along with law shall act as a benefit as you would have the knowledge of business aspects of firms and economy.
Also, you could do LLM in any of the business laws including contracts competition law, etc.
Also, CS along with law would be a combo which no one would be able to beat.

Hi,
It is again your matter of choice of what you want to take up.
There is no bar on this.
For a family lawyer, he must be well versed in personal laws.
Also, specialization in family laws would be an add-on.

Hi,
For this, one needs a valid degree of law and a license to practice.
A knowledge of property and real estate laws is advisable as this field includes the knowledge.
Apart from this, there is no requirement as such. You are free to choose your field.

Hi,
Environment has been a subject of practice that is much prevalent. However, the field involves more of public interest litigations as Mr. M.C.Mehta has been known for being an environmental activist.
Also, the environment lawyering is not much profitable as it's for a cause lawyering.
Rest, one must prefer practicing at the High Court for better cases.

Hey.
For practicing tax law, you need to have a law degree and a license.
A specialisation in direct and indirect taxes is much preferred for better understanding.
Also for tax lawyers you need to restrict your practices to tax tribunals.

Hello,
Well, scoring a top rank at law entrance exam doesn't have to do anything with your career as such. Also, the ranks in college do not matter. However, you are judged bases on your percentage in your college but believe me that does not declare your abilities.
For a lawyer, you need to know the law well with all details and cases and also, you must be thorough with substantive as well as procedural law and the advocates act of India.
For a successful lawyer, you need to have an articulation capacity of next level and you must be witty enough to handle the case, client and situations.
It is not necessary that a topper can do all.
