Pro Hac Vice and Out-of-State Attorney .....

Is there a special program through the ABA and/or Cal.Bar, that allows an atty., to practice the law in more then a couple of states?

I've recently heard of ''Pro Hac Vice and Out-of-State Attorney Program''.

Is this the only one?

How does one find such a ''unique attorney/firm, etc.?

I need one ASAP.
