No problem at all.
The problem emerged because he said he graduated from Harvard, when in fact he didn't pass the bar exam.
The firm would need to admit that it hadn't checked with the law school before employing him, which would be embarrassing at best, illegal at worst.
As you know, if you have followed from Season One, this is something that Mike thinks he has solved by various means, but it keeps coming back to bite him - as this time!

It's essentially fraud as he is practicing based on qualifications that he does not have, such as passing the state Bar exam to be licensed to practice.
Like practising calling yourself a "solicitor" here without actually getting the qualifications and undertaking compulsory training and being formally admitted.
He could have been employed as a paralegal like Rachel perfectly legally.
There is also the fact that the firm only hired junior associates from Harvard, where he obviously didn't go (or to any law school).
From what I understand, law school in the States is post graduate (not like our law degree) and it doesn't even seem like he has an undergraduate degree.
I can't wait until it's back, what a cliffhanger (despite the running theme).
I love the show, I think Louis is brilliant! Love Donna too.

As with all dramas, masses of poetic licence is used to allow plots to develop, and by the same token, simple solutions are avoided in order to maintain the storylines and interactions.
This applies to all wonderful dramas, like Suits, and to all paper-thin soap scenarios like EastEnders - if you lived with such a large collection of deeply unpleasant people, you'd move out! But no, they stay and fall out minute by minute because that is now soaps function.
