How Long A Ny Lawyer Needs To Practice In Tx Before Getting A License To Practice In That State ?

Attorneys cannot practice in a particular state until they have a license in that state. So a NY atty cannot practice in TX ever – unless they get the TX license first.
To get the license, take the state bar exam, pass it, be sworn in before the court, then you get your license and can practice.

Isn’t that question a classic “catch 22″?
