Hope you all find this helpful. Comment below or dm me on Instagram if you have other questions! Also, a quick note: for eligibility, if you are a lawyer already, you may sit for the California bar exam.

Hi Gordon! Firstly let me congratulate you on the excellent videos you have made so far! Wanted to ask regarding the Civil Law countries eligibility requirements! I have submitted a request for eligibility at NYS Bar Examination Foreign Evaluation. Since it's a civil law country where I finished law school, I should expect a negative answer. How should I proceed then? Will the NYS Bar notify me of the necessity to do an LLM in the States before taking the bar exam? Regards!

So if I wanted to become a lawyer in the state of Tennessee what would you recommend? Any good materials online for example? I completed my undergraduates (criminal justice) degree a few years ago. I'm looking to furthering my education and get my law degree... Would I even need to get my law degree in Tennessee? I know every state is different. Anyway I know I have alot of questions haha. Just looking for somebody like you to point me in the right and more importantly, the most effective way to become a lawyer within a year. Thank you for your time. Would appreciate any advice. Congrats btw :))

I think foreign qualified lawyers often take the CA bar instead of the NY bar if they don’t have a LLB from a common law background

Foreign Bachelor of Laws Degree will qualify to sit for the New York Bar?
@GordonChung
@GordonChung 3 года назад
Yes, if it’s from a common law country it’s very likely
@equable9209
@equable9209 3 года назад
@@GordonChung Yes, my foreign country is a combination of Civil and Common Law. I tried to sit for the California Bar (CalBar) and CalBar instructed me to have my foreign credentials evaluated by their accredited agency. The accredited agency evaluated my Bachelor of Laws (L.L.B.) and is equivalent to a US JD degree. I register online application and submitted all my paper works as instructed by the CalBar and after their review, CalBar replied me back that, my case as a foreign law graduate and wish to sit for the California Bar is required to study one year of Master of Laws (LL.M.) at an accredited ABA law school and to study LLM will most likely be spending $62,000.00. Gordon, with your experience at the New York Bar (NYB), do you think I need to cure a deficiency with my 4 year foreign pre-law course and 4 year foreign law proper LLB? Did NYB admitted you to take the Bar because of your LLB with LLM and Law training? Or just LLB alone will qualify me to sit in the NYB? Thank you!

Hi Gordon, it’s been two years when I message you about my eligibility for the NY bar. 😊 Now, that I am eligible. Do you suggest to go over all the text books subjects covered by the NY bar? Read all of them, memorize, etc., or just enroll and focus on Themis or Barbri bar materials? Thank you, Gordon!
