Immigration Clinic
Immigration Clinic
The Immigration Clinic advocates for vulnerable immigrants, especially those seeking humanitarian relief like asylum amidst the threat of deportation.
Our clinic provides a pivotal lifeline in Columbus, championing the rights of noncitizens who are often left without counsel.
Clinic students handle all aspects of a client’s case, including client interviewing and counseling, case planning, fact investigation, legal research and writing, and trial advocacy. Students will also learn how to work with interpreters and expert witnesses.
Hone lawyering skills while navigating immigration challenges and U.S. law and policy.
Casework is complemented by a seminar that meets twice per week. In the seminar, students will develop their lawyering skills, learn substantive immigration law and policy, and reflect on ethical issues and proposals for reform of the immigration system. Whether they ultimately pursue a career in immigration law or another area, students will gain invaluable lawyering skills and a deeper understanding of the issues facing immigrants and other marginalized groups in the American legal system.
