Clinical Programs: Civil Law Practicum

The Civil Law Practicum is a clinic course in which law students represent clients in pending civil cases, learning how to competently and professionally represent clients in civil matters through both live-client representation and extensive simulations.

In addition to class meetings, students prepare each case, present it in court, or work to obtain a satisfactory out-of-court resolution. Team-taught by two members of the clinic faculty, the course meets twice per week.
