Admission to other jurisdictions - Some Resources

For those of you with eyes fixed on other pastures, figuring out what the bar admission requirements may be for a given jurisdiction, and whether you can "waive in" to the bar there, can be tedious. Here are some resources to help you along in your research. . .

The American Bar Association has several references for information on admission by motion to the bar of other states.

The “Reciprocity, Comity & Attorneys Exams” chart lists the requirements for the fifty states (2005).

“Admission by Motion Rules” lists the links to each state’s admission by motion rules (2007).

The National Conference of Bar Examiners publishes, and updates annually, the “Comprehensive Guide to Bar Admissions Requirements” (2008).


Have at it -- but always remember where you came from!
