Frequently Asked Questions

Am I eligible as a foreign attorney? expand_more

Eligibility varies by state. New York allows foreign attorneys via Rule 520.6 with certain educational requirements (an LLM may be needed). California offers the Attorneys Examination for lawyers with 4+ years practice. Contact us for personalized eligibility guidance.

Is this the same course as for US students? expand_more

Yes. This is our Extended package - the same comprehensive bar review taken by US law school graduates, with additional support features ideal for international candidates: extra tutor sessions, personal coaching, and extended access through two exam periods.

Which state should I choose? expand_more

Most international attorneys seek admission in New York or California due to their international business centers. New York uses the UBE (Uniform Bar Exam), which can help you transfer to other UBE states. California has its own exam. We can advise based on your career goals.

Do I need an LLM? expand_more

It depends on your home jurisdiction and law degree. For New York, many foreign attorneys need an LLM from a US law school to be eligible. For California's Attorneys Examination, you may not need one if you have sufficient practice experience. Contact us for a personalized assessment.

How long is the program? expand_more

The Extended package gives you access through two exam periods (typically 6-12 months). Most candidates study intensively for 10-16 weeks before their exam. Your personalized study plan adapts to your timeline and availability.
