Best Answer

A Tennessee lawyer may not practice law in Alabama, with one exception. Sometimes lawyers from other states are allowed to appear in a court case in another state by being admitted "pro hac vice". This means they are admitted solely for that matter and nothing else. An application must be made to the court for this and special conditions must be met before it will be allowed. When the case is over, his ability to practice in that state is over. Otherwise, the Tennessee lawyer would have to apply to be admitted to the bar of Alabama. Some states require the lawyer to sit for the bar exam, others will look at the lawyer's credentials and admit or not admit him or her the bar.
