Bar Admissions:  Process and Pitfalls
Go Back

First and foremost, do not lie or fail to disclose critical information on any application or report for bar admission. Instead, the LSBA suggests talking to an attorney familiar with the bar admissions process to discuss the ways to best mitigate potential trouble spots. Below please find volunteer panels from each law school that would be happy to generally discuss the issues with you. While the lawyers on the panel are there to assist you and your discussions will be confidential, they cannot be retained by you to represent you before the Committee on Bar Admissions and the Louisiana Supreme Court. The volunteer ad hoc panels are not allowed to represent you. Instead, the volunteers will be glad to assist you to determine the extent of the problem and whether you will need to find outside attorney assistance.
