Jurisdiction matters
Legal streams are usually jurisdiction-specific, because the correct answer depends on the legal system. US and UK qualifications appear most often; EU, Indian and other jurisdictions are recruited for particular projects. Being qualified somewhere less covered can work in your favour.
