Certification or Licensing
Lawyers must be admitted to the bar of the state where they want to practice. Applicants must graduate from an American Bar Association-approved law school and pass a written examination. The ABA provides an overview of the process at https://www.americanbar.org/groups/legal_education/resources/bar_admissions/basic_overview.
A lawyer who has extensive compliance responsibilities might consider earning the chartered regulatory counsel designation from the Regulatory Compliance Association. Attorneys might also want to earn financial-related certifications such as the certified financial planner credential (which is offered by the CFP Board) and the chartered financial consultant designation (American College of Financial Services).
