You cannot get into Law School without getting a bachlor's degree. The number of years depend on whether you go full or part-time.
If you go full time plus summer school, some Bachelor Degrees can be completed in 3 years, or without summer school, 4 years.
If you have good enough grades (3.75 grade average or above, typically) and LSAT score to get into law school, it takes 3 years to complete law school.
You cannot become a lawyer until you pass the Bar for the state where you intend to practice. Most people do not pass it on the first try.

No state lets you take the Bar Exam without some training. Generally it's your 4-year B.A. plus 3 years full time or 4 years part-time. Some states allow a longer number of years as an apprentice with an Attorney Tutor but the non-academic routes are being closed.

In some states you can just pass the bar to become a lawyer, but that is being phased out. Law school is 3 years.

Three for a full-time student. However, the first year seems like 20 years alone.
