I'm a foreign trained lawyer and am trying to confirm which ONLINE LLM programs satisfy Rule 13(9) so that I can be admitted as an attorney in Texas.

I don't believe there are any. Texas likes to be difficult about online classes for licensing.

Contact the State Bar of Texas for such information. They have people paid to.answer such questions.

Generally speaking i believe the LLM has to be from a law school accredited by the American Bar Association (ABA). I don't know if any ABA accredited law schools offer online LLM degrees.

Generally speaking, passing a bar exam without a JD degree from an American law school is extremely difficult. However, I do know one Russian guy who did. So it's not impossible.

Best of luck to you!!!!!!
