Bar admission process

The bar admission process involves completing legal education (usually a law degree), passing a written exam called the bar exam, and demonstrating good character and fitness to practice law. After passing the exam, applicants often undergo interviews and background checks to ensure they meet ethical standards. Once approved, they take an oath of professionalism and are officially licensed to practice law in that jurisdiction. This process ensures lawyers are knowledgeable, trustworthy, and qualified to serve clients ethically and competently.
