clinics at law schools

Law school clinics are programs where students gain practical experience by providing legal services to real clients under faculty supervision. They allow students to apply their theoretical knowledge to actual cases, often serving underserved communities or handling specific legal issues. Clinics benefit students by developing skills like client communication, legal research, and advocacy, while also offering affordable or pro bono assistance to the public. These programs enhance professional competence and ethical understanding, bridging the gap between classroom learning and professional practice.
