Hi after graduating from law are you recognised right away as a lawyer?

No, you must undertake practical legal training in order to be issued with a practicing certificate. This is usually done through the College of Law, although I think a couple of universities incorporate it into their law degree (such as UTS), which allows law graduates to gain the practicing certificate near immediately.

For more information on how to gain a practicing certificate, visit this website.

You definitely don't get certified as a lawyer when out of law school.
Get ready for the hard part ;-)
Good Luck!
