FAQ
The general rule is a lawyer can only practice law in a state court when they have been admitted to the bar of that state. An exception would be when the attorney is admitted on a pro hac vice basis, where the out-of-state lawyer can practice with an in-state attorney acting as local counsel.
In some instances, attorneys who are properly licensed and in good standing in another state are allowed to practice in California. For example, attorneys who practice only federal law, such as immigration, may practice in California but be licensed in another state.
Attorneys licensed to practice law in another state or jurisdiction may seek full licensure in California or seek to practice law in California under limited circumstances through one of several State Bar special admissions programs.
