Earning a JD degree from a law school accredited by the American Bar Association, like the University of Alabama School of Law, qualifies a person to apply for admission to the state bar where they intend to practice law. In addition to a bar examination, there are character, fitness, and other qualifications for admission to the bar in every U.S. jurisdiction. Applicants are encouraged to determine the requirements for any jurisdiction in which they intend to seek admission by contacting the jurisdiction. Addresses for all relevant agencies are available through the National Conference of Bar Examiners. In addition, you are encouraged to review the additional information here concerning your degree program and state requirements for professional licensure: https://www.ncbex.org/jurisdictions.
