FAQ

Lawyers are allowed to provide services in another state if they will not be going to courts, such as arbitration and mediation. Out-of-state lawyers can also represent clients in another state if they will be working with a local lawyer. This is allowed under the “pro hac vice” process.

In most cases, your attorney must be admitted to the bar in the state with jurisdiction. Most states have a process for an out of state attorney to be admitted to represent a client for one case only. The Latin phrase “pro hac vice” or “for this occasion only” describes this process.

California Reciprocity California doesn't offer reciprocity but offers a shorter bar exam for attorneys who are admitted in other states and who have been in good standing as an attorney in those states for at least four years prior to their application.

There are websites, including LegalMatch, that provide a person with a wealth of information about lawyers in any location in the United States. In order to hire a lawyer in another state, a person should simply contact the lawyer and discuss their case and the issues it presents.

Out-of-state attorneys who are licensed and in good standing in another U.S. jurisdiction may apply to the Multijurisdictional Practice Program to practice law in a limited capacity in California.
