Certification Exam Set for Manchester
The National Board of Legal Specialty Certification (NBLSC) is accredited by the American Bar Association (ABA) to certify attorneys as specialists in the areas of civil, criminal and family law trial advocacy. Both the National Board of Trial Advocacy and the National Board of Social Security Disability Advocacy are divisions of the NBLSC, but it wasn’t until recently that the ABA approved NBLSC to certify Social Security Disability advocates as well.
NBLSC is conducting its fall national trial certification exam on Oct. 14. In New Hampshire, this day-long written exam will be held at the Manchester law firm of Beliveau Fradette Doyle & Gallant, 91 Bay Street, from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Certification exams are available for the areas of civil, criminal, family law trial advocacy and social security advocacy . The exam costs $375, plus an application fee of $350. Applications are due by Sept. 1.
