Bar Exam

I'm currently in law school and as far as I know, that still varies by state. In California, for example, you need to have your JD to take the bar, but I've heard there are some exeptions to that or some states where you can get your LLM instead of your JD and sit for the bar. However, even if you could take the bar without having a JD I think you would have a hard time finding anyone who would want to hire you to work as an attorney...

Fill out a form from your state Bar association. (You can probably google the information for your state bar) In addition to the form, write a detailed letter that outlines the code of conduct and ethics that the attorney has not upheld. If you have further evidence (like recordings, video, etc), create a copy of those documents, and send the copy(ies) with the form and the letter.

In some states, you can file a complaint by calling a hotline and skip the snail mail.

Yes if the two states have reciprocal agreements, but usually only if you have already been practicing in your home state for several years. If there is no such agreement, then you will need to sit for the bar, if that other state has a rule that only ABA law school graduates can sit for the bar, then you CANNOT become a lawyer there, as youre not even allowed to test.

No because he was never a lawyer he did not need to take the bar

Its possible to get around the law school requirement, yes (see CA state bar website). However, I highly recommend against wasting your thousands of dollars on a failed attempt. I'm aware of the various alternatives, like clerking for an attorney for many years, doing correspondence courses for 4 years, etc, which I'm not asking about (but did not make clear above) -- I'm specifically curious as to the question mentioned above: That is, by meeting the quoted requirement below, and not any other requirement, can you take the bar exam in California CA with just an ABA accredited LLM but no JD or foreign law degree?

Per official rules from:

http://calbar.ca.gov/calbar/pdfs/rules/Rules_Title4_Div1-Adm-Prac-Law.pdf

Rule 4.26 Legal education

General applicants for the California Bar Examination must

"(A) be graduates of law schools approved by the American Bar Association or accredited by the Committee; or"

(B) demonstrate that in accordance with these rules they have

(1) studied law diligently and in good faith for at least four years in a law school registered with the Committee; in a law office; in a judge's chambers; or by some combination of these methods; or

(2) met the requirements of these rules for legal education in a foreign state or country; and

(C) have passed or established exemption from the First-Year Law Students' Examination.

Can the "graduates of law schools approved by the American Bar Association" be satisfied by an ABA accredited LLM program, or does is it implicitly refer to an ABA-accredited JD program? (Ignore the issue of whether one can get an LLM w/o a JD...)

The bar exam is taken after you successfully complete law school.

Yes she did, and she was a successful attorney until she decided to devote her time to her husband's political career. As a result, she let her law license expire, but if she ever wants to renew it, she can go back to practicing law again.

It's not 100% clear from the question what sort of reciprocity you're asking about, please be more specific.

Practice in a state is controlled by the Bar for that state. To practice in California, you have to be a member of the California Bar. The requirements vary state to state. Generally recent law school graduates and relatively new lawyers must pass the bar exam in the state in which they want to practice. You can also get special permission from the court to work on a particular case in that state. If you've been a lawyer for a few years, you may be able to apply to the bar without taking the test. In California, in addition to the typical fitness, background checks, etc., you have to have actively practiced law for four years. Full details are available on the California Bar web site.

There are no barristers in the U.S., just lawyers. The requirements for entrance into the bar differ from state to state. In most states, bar entrance requires:

1) a JD degree from an ABA recognized law school

2) passing the MPRE (ethics exam) and state specific bar exam

3) passing a character and fitness examination.

New york and massachusets allow Canadian LLB's (canadians are required to have previous undergrad education before entering the LLB program) to take the bar exam and practise.

In other states you should get a llm in common law of the us as long as your llb in your country has simmilar sylabbus to us jd this allows you same privelleges as jd as long as you llb is good enough (i know in Canada it is)
