Reality show star ROB KARDASHIAN plans to waltz his way into law school — and his former "Dancing with the Stars" rival, TV prosecutor NANCY GRACE, has promised to help him every step of the way!

The 24-year-old is determined to follow in the footsteps of his famous father, the late ROBERT KARDASHIAN SR., who defended O.J. SIMPSON during his sensational 1995 murder trial.

“Rob recently announced to his family that he's buckling down to become a lawyer, just like his dad,” an insider told The ENQUIRER. “He's been hitting the books and studying like a madman for the LSATs (Law School Admission Test). He doesn't want to just coast along on his famous family's name and be a reality star for the rest of his life.”

Rob, the only male among the famous Kardashian siblings, confessed his career plans to Nancy while they were both vying for the top prize on “DWTS” — and, according to the source, the big-talking blonde “couldn't have been more supportive.”

Nancy, 52, has even offered to mentor Rob by helping him prepare for law school and teaching him the ins and outs of the law business, added the source. She's also agreed to write letters of recommendation to the schools he's interested in attending and to tutor him in his classes.

“When Nancy first met Rob she was expecting a lazy, stupid fame-monger, but she grew to love him like a son,” noted the source. “Nancy is extremely impressed by Rob's drive and ambition, and she'll pull whatever strings she can to help him succeed as a lawyer.”
