Juris Doctor (J.D.) is the professional degree that has been required to practice law in the United States in almost all states for decades. The degree usually requires three years of study involving a wide-range of subjects as set by the American Bar Association, and the J.D. is a professional degree, requiring a Bachelor degree in any subject prior to starting J.D. studies. In order to practice law, a student must complete their J.D. and pass the bar. You typically do not call someone with a Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree "Doctor" in the U.S.; they are addressed as "Attorney," "Counselor," or "Mr./Ms./Mx.," and may use "Esq." (Esquire) after their name, though some academic or international contexts permit "Doctor," as the J.D. is technically a professional doctorate but differs from Ph.D.s.
