The Juvenile Justice Clinic was a great experience for me! It taught me the practical skills of interacting with clients, coming up with legal arguments, and presenting those legal arguments in court. If you are interested in litigation, I highly recommend taking this clinic. -

Participating in Texas Law’s Domestic Violence Clinic has been the most valuable experience of my law school career. The clinic is a place to get many nerve-racking firsts out of the way with the non-judgmental support and guidance of Jeana Lungwitz, our rock star supervising attorney, and with all of the resources we have here […] -
