In most states a felony conviction is not an absolute bar to practicing law.
In many states (e.g.:Indiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Texas, etc) a felony conviction prevents a person from being admitted to the Bar and thus they would be unable to practice law in those states.

Actually, you can be an ex-felon. If the record is expunged, or dropped to a misdemeanor, you formerly had a felony; however, currently, you do not.
