Clinics
Miami Law's award-winning clinics are exceptional training grounds and give students practical, hands-on lawyering experience, while also helping needy and under-represented individuals and groups in Miami and across the nation and the globe. Each year, law students and faculty members help people from a wide range of areas: Individuals threatened with eviction, youth aging out of foster care, refugees seeking asylum, and low-income and elderly seeking help with will preparation. This is a tradition that many UM Law alumni continue throughout their careers.
Our clinics provide students with the unparalleled opportunity to work with clients, serve the public, and acquire valuable legal skills. For many students, participating in a clinic is one of the most memorable and rewarding experiences they will have in law school.
