If admitted to practice Law in Indiana is there reciprocity with Massachusetts?
Generally, no. Ohio bar exam reciprocity is very limited, and Indiana's reciprocity is based on the attorney having 5 to 7 years' experience and intending to practice law predominately in Indiana. An Ohio-licensed attorney may apply for a provisional one-year admission to the Indiana Bar if he fulfills these requirements; after five consecutive provisional admissions, the Ohio-licensed attorney is eligible for full admission to the Indiana Bar.
Indiana has no formal reciprocity but provisionally admits lawyers who have practiced law for five years of the seven years immediately preceding their applications for admission without taking and passing the Indiana bar examination. In Colorado, other states have to reciprocate for Colorado lawyers. In other words, If Illinois has reciprocity with Colorado (and it does) then Colorado will reciprocally admit Illinois lawyers
The Virginia bar has reciprocity with all states and the District of Columbia. That means that you do not have to retake the bar exam to practice law in Virginia.

Yes, if you pass the bar exam in Massachusetts, you can take the bar exam in Rhode Island, but you must meet certain requirements. Rhode Island does not have a direct reciprocity agreement with Massachusetts, so you will need to apply to take the Rhode Island bar exam as a separate process. Additionally, you may need to provide proof of your legal education and meet other qualifications set by the Rhode Island Supreme Court. Always check the latest rules and regulations, as they can change.
As far as I can tell, none. Of the states that do offer reciprocity, all of them require that the state in which the attorney sits offer reciprocity to them, as well. SD does not allow reciprocity with any state, so no state will allow reciprocity with SD.
Massachusetts Bar Association was created in 1910.
