Vermont changes rules for licensing of out-of-state attorneys
The Vermont Supreme Court has changed the rules for out-of-state
attorneys to be licensed in Vermont. They have dropped the
three-month clerkship requirement for attorneys with five or more
years of practice in another jurisdiction. In its place,
Vermont now mandates 15 hours of CLE, all of which must be taken
prior to admission, with programs approved by the Board of Bar
Examiners. For information on programs approved to assist
in this transition, click
