New York Attorney Admission Petition is a petition that can be filed by an applicant who is seeking to be admitted to practice law in the state of New York. The petition must be filed with the New York State Court of Appeals and contain all required documentation including the applicant's Oath of Admission, Statement of Professional Character and Fitness, and proof of completion of the New York Law Course. If approved by the court, the applicant will be admitted to the bar and can begin practicing law in New York. There are two types of New York Attorney Admission Petitions: 1) Admission by Motion, which is for applicants who are already admitted to practice law in another state or jurisdiction, and 2) Admission on Examination, which is for applicants who have not previously been admitted to practice law in another state or jurisdiction.
