"I think you're a lawyer if you practice law."

But you have to be admitted to the bar of the court before you can practice in that jurisdiction.

Don't know the facts of this issue or if he claimed to have "practiced" law but, in some states (maybe all, I don't know) it's a felony to practice law without a license. And passing the bar exam is usually a prerequisite to being licensed.
