The North Carolina State Bar Board of Legal Specialization offers board certification in Consumer Bankruptcy Law. This specialization allows lawyers to be certified as specialists in the practice of consumer bankruptcy law.
Lawyers must demonstrate substantial involvement in bankruptcy law, averaging 500 hours annually and never going below 400 hours in any year. This requirement can also be met through roles in bankruptcy courts, certain corporate or governmental positions, or academic roles related to bankruptcy. Lawyers must complete 36 hours of accredited bankruptcy law courses over three years, ensuring at least 6 credits annually. The peer review process necessitates ten references from lawyers or judges familiar with the applicant's bankruptcy expertise, with certain restrictions on who the references can be. Finally, applicants undergo a rigorous six-hour exam, facilitated by the American Board of Certification, at the NC State Bar building.
