A Tulare County law clerk has become the youngest person in history to pass the California bar exam, surpassing her older brother.

Sophia Park, 17, broke the record set by her older brother, Peter, only last year.

Peter was 17 years and 11 months old when he passed the exam, while Sophia was 17 years and 8 months old.

“Sophia’s amazing accomplishments speak for themselves, and we could not be prouder as an office family,” said Tulare County District Attorney Tim Ward. “It is truly remarkable how successful we have been in helping our law students, interns, and law clerks achieve their professional goals.

The benefits to our office have been enormous, and we are thrilled to be a part of Sophia and Peter’s ongoing success.”

Sophia, like her brother, began law school at age 13 in 2020 while attending Oxford Academy in Cypress, California.

She graduated from high school in early 2022, followed by Northwestern California University School of Law this year.

Sophia is expected to be sworn in as a licensed attorney in March 2025, after turning 18. She intends to join the Tulare County District Attorney’s Office alongside her brother.
