After six years of dedicated study, Kim Kardashian has completed California’s Law Office Study Program (LOSP), an alternative path to legal licensure that involves apprenticeship under licensed attorneys rather than attending a traditional law school. This achievement brings her closer to her goal of becoming a licensed attorney, a journey she embarked on in 2019. Kardashian celebrated this milestone with a surprise graduation party organized by her family in Beverly Hills, surrounded by her children, mentors, and close friends.

Despite the personal significance of this accomplishment, Kardashian’s announcement was met with mixed reactions online. Critics questioned the legitimacy of her non-traditional educational route and the extended duration of her studies, with some suggesting that her celebrity status afforded her privileges not available to others. Comments ranged from skepticism about her qualifications to outright mockery of her efforts.

Supporters, however, praised Kardashian’s perseverance and commitment to her legal studies, highlighting the challenges she faced balancing her education with her responsibilities as a mother and businesswoman. Her mentor, attorney Jessica Jackson, commended her dedication, noting that Kardashian invested over 5,000 hours into her legal education.

Having passed the “baby bar” exam and the Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam, Kardashian now faces the California bar exam, a rigorous test with a recent pass rate of 55.9%. She has not yet announced when she plans to take this final step toward becoming a licensed attorney.

Kardashian’s journey into the legal field has been driven by her passion for criminal justice reform, inspired in part by her late father, attorney Robert Kardashian. She has been actively involved in advocacy work, including efforts to secure clemency for individuals serving lengthy sentences for non-violent offenses.

While public opinion remains divided, Kardashian’s completion of the LOSP represents a significant personal achievement and a step forward in her mission to effect change within the justice system.
