I think every state permits reciprocal licensing for working lawyers.
That is, if you've been practicing law in state X for five or seven years and you move to state Y, then state Y will admit you to practice law without requiring you to pass state Y's bar exam.
So move to Washington, become a lawyer, then move to any other state after a certain number of years. Easy peasy.
Sounds like a plan. Thanks!
States have to have reciprocity with one another. You'd be surprised at how few do. I practiced in Maryland for twenty years and then when I moved to Virginia had to take the full Virginia bar exam.
In reality, people learn more about "black letter law" when studying for the bar exam than they do in attending law school. Law school is more about teaching students how to think about law rather than teaching actual law.
