To practice law in California lawyers must be members of the State Bar.
The State Bar of California is an administrative arm of the California Supreme Court founded in 1927.
California Law consists of 29 codes, covering various subject areas, the State Constitution and Statutes.
California has the only state bar in the nation with independent professional judges dedicated to ruling on attorney discipline cases. The State Bar Court conducts hearings and makes decisions and formal recommendations on attorney disciplinary matters.
In California, the trend of legal assistants independently opening their own offices appeared to take off following a Supreme Court decision concerning The California Bar’s prosecution of a former legal secretary who started a business preparing documents for self-representing persons in divorce cases. The case generated such negative public opinion toward The California Bar that the California Supreme Court eventually had to adopt a more permissive rule allowing nonlawyers to assist the public in preparing court-approved legal forms.
Legal technicians are providing a variety of legal services to the public today and The California Bar’s unlicensed practice of law enforcement program has not deterred or prevented most of these activities, according to a 1992 report of The California Bar Legal Technician Study Committee. The report related there was no regulation of legal technicians and no uniformity regarding their qualifications, education, training, or experience.
The mission of the State Bar: "Preserve and improve our justice system in order to ensure a free and just society under the law."
