My goal is to become a family attorney. What should I major in right now as an undergraduate? I have heard getting a bachelors or masters in Psychology is probably the best route.

Major in Spanish, it’ll be useful and you will stand out from all of the other applicants when applying to Law School.
Most law schools don’t care a lot. It couldn’t hurt to have a background in family dynamics. Finances also helps because there is a lot of that involved in dividing up families in divorces.
A lot of people going to law school major in the social sciences, so it won’t really stand out.
Well you can get a bachelors in whatever you want – most law schools I believe don’t have a major requirement. Criminology, psychology, whatever. You just have to take the LSAT in college though.
But why would you get a masters? If you’re going to law school, you’re going for a JD, not a masters or phd.
Psychology is a good major. You should also consider sociology or social work.
