My father was a lawyer in the district court. He joined the profession at the age of 42. Am I eligible for reservation under the OBC category in the non-creamy layer?

The creamy layer is determined based on your parents’ income and profession for the past 10 years prior to the application. Since your father was a lawyer for less than 10 years before the relevant date, you might be eligible for OBC reservation in the non-creamy layer. However, you must meet the specific criteria and obtain the relevant certificate from the competent authority.
