The most recommended way to kick start your preparation for judiciary exams is the Reverse Method. What I mean by it is that you must take the reverse approach and start preparing for the Mains exam first and then move on to the preliminary stage.
So, even before your targeted judiciary exam is notified, you should invest time in preparing for the Mains exam.
By analyzing your targeted state judiciary pattern and previous year's question papers, prepare a Question bank of around 50 questions of the Mains exam each from all the major subjects and around 25 questions each from all the minor subjects.
Based on these question banks, you should develop your conceptual clarity of the laws. This approach will help you understand how to write good answers in the Mains exam and hence prove to be a score-oriented approach.
While reading laws for conceptual clarity, you have already started your preparation for the Preliminary exam, now you need to streamline it again by REVERSE TECHNIQUE from practicing MCQs to Learning Bare acts.
Start practicing MCQ questions (preferably previous year question papers from all states) and then after gathering an idea on what topics the questions are asked from? What kind of questions are asked? Move on learning the provisions from the bare acts.
