Thank you so much. Sorry for the trivia question, couldn't get any help on this right now.

Is there a reason you need a bar admissions line on your resume? I don't think it's typical.

It's not atypical for there to be a "Bar Admissions" heading on a legal resume. Under it, it might list New Jersey (active), New York (active), New Mexico (inactive). It signals to employers where you can or might be able to work with ease in the future. It also signals the base level that you are barred to practice. I also see people list the federal courts that they're admitted to practice in front of.gregfootball2001 wrote: ↑Tue Oct 13, 2020 8:38 pmIs there a reason you need a bar admissions line on your resume?
