"The Domestic Violence Clinic was
a great way for me to wet my feet
on real legal work during my last
year of law school when I felt so
ready for the real world. It was
a great hands-on learning experience
that gave me the opportunity to
assist clients who really needed
some help and whose legal needs
would have otherwise gone unserviced."
