How to pass the CA bar exam to be an attorney?

If you go to a CA Bar Accredited law school but you want to be a patent attorney practicing only federal law can you take another state's bar exam?

  • Answer:

    You must take and pass the Patent Bar. You must take and pass a state bar exam. Once you are registered as an attorney with the USPTO, it doesn't matter what state you are barred in. You may practice anywhere in the US, because patent law is federal law. You should take the state bar of the state in which you plan to reside. If you are unsure, it might be a good idea to take CA, since there is an exam to waive into admissions there, but other states allow you to waive in by motion only after practicing for 5 years.
