Clinics

Immigration Justice Clinic representing clients at the Second Circuit Court of Appeals

Solving real-world legal problems constitutes an essential step in learning to exercise the professional judgment required to become a lawyer. Through Haub Law's clinics, students have the opportunity to represent clients on actual cases and gain practical experience in dealing with diverse and complex legal situations.

Working as an attorney, our students take on front-line responsibility and make all decisions under the guidance and supervision of the clinical faculty. The hands-on experience acquired in the clinics enhances and brings to life the doctrine students learn in other courses. All clinics include both casework and required seminars.

Real Clients, Real Cases

Haub Law offers client-representation clinical programs in criminal defense, disability rights and health law, food and beverage law, immigration, and investor rights. In these clinics, student interns represent clients who otherwise could not obtain legal assistance, in both litigation and transactional matters. Under faculty supervision, student interns handle all stages of litigation, from initial client interviews, case assessment and counseling, and plea drafts, through discovery, fact investigation, and settlement negotiations, to hearings and trials. Students engage in client interviews and counseling, prepare draft and final documents, and supervise the execution of legal instruments.
