a little disagreement
I am currently in my third year of law school and my school has a joint program. It takes 4 years to get a J.D. and a master's degree. (Which is what was asked about in the first place.) I opted not to do it mainly because I wanted to get my degrees at different schools. I was considering getting a master's degree in education. I now wish that I had done it, because it would have added only one year. Now I am looking at a minimum of 2 years to get a master's. At my school you do one full year of each program and then 2 years of a combination of law and master's classes. The students who do it really enjoy it.
Side note: I thought the first year of law school was the worst. I thought it got easier. There is no longer a forced curve and the professors (for the most part) are more easy-going. The only thing that makes it harder is my fading motivation to study.
I know everyone has their own opinion. That's just my two cents.
