Each state establishes its own criteria for admission to the bar, and many states have reciprocal agreements. If you want to work in a state that has a reciprocal agreement with the state where you've taken and passed the bar, you can do so without needing to retake the bar.

CALIFORNIA: The state does not offer reciprocity, but offers a shorter bar examination for attorneys licensed in other states with good standing for at least four years prior to application. COLORADO: Other states have to reciprocate for Colorado lawyers.
