For becoming psychologist, you need to study psychology at graduation level instead of law and then seek specialisation in criminal psychology. There is one more way that touches this field. You will have to study extensively criminology. One field of this deals with criminal psychology.

Hello, If you study law, you become lawyer. Study further in law and you end up becoming a specialist in law in that sub-discipline. For becoming a psychologist, you need to study psychology at graduation level instead of law and then seek specialization in criminal psychology. Best wishes to you.
