Unless you're a licensed New York attorney that agrees with bacha your opinion doesn't matter on here
Let's try this another way.
1. You don't practice medicine in New York on a Nevada license.
2. You don't sell alcohol in New York on a Nevada liquor license.
3. You don't practice veterinary medicine in New York on a Nevada veterinary license.
4. You don't fill pharmacy prescriptions in New York on a Nevada pharmacists license.
5. You don't teach school in New York on a Nevada teacher's license.
6. You don't embalm bodies in New York on a Nevada mortician's license.
7. You don't practice dentistry in New York on a Nevada dentist's license.
8. And you don't practice law in New York on a Nevada law license.
Now whether or not this Nevada lawyer's interpretation of the law is right or wrong doesn't matter and he may very well be right. But states are very strict and take great pride when it comes to their professional licensing standards. If you want to be a professional practitioner in their state they don't care what you've done in another state. You will meet that state's high standards when it comes to education, experience, qualifications, proven proficiency and testing especially in a state like New York. If you fail to prove yourself worthy of a license by that state....then try someplace else.
