Texas attorneys have an annual TX CLE requirement. Attorneys in Texas must complete at least 15 hours annually, including at least 3 hours of legal ethics. If you have not completed or reported the 15 hours by the last day of your compliance period, a reminder Notice will be emailed and mailed to you.

TX CLE – Grace Period

  • Your birth month is essentially a grace period to complete the required 15 hours.

You will automatically be given your birth month as a grace period in order to comply with the TX MCLE requirements without a penalty. If you do not complete and report at least 15 hours of CLE by the last day of the grace period, you will be in non-compliance and subject to a penalty.
