Description

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE CLINIC IS A 6-HR. CLINIC. The clinical component of this course will involve student representation of domestic violence survivors in a myriad of legal problems, including custody, divorce, visitation, housing, protective orders, parole advocacy and occasionally in consumer and public assistance matters. The class sessions will cover the matters relevant in civil domestic violence cases: safety planning, comprehensive intake, case analysis and handling, investigation, negotiation, trial preparation, discovery, and temporary and permanent orders, including protective orders. Prerequisites: Students enrolling should have completed 43 credit hours before beginning the Clinic, and not be on scholastic probation. No other clinics may be taken at the same time as this clinic. In addition to selecting the Clinic during Early Registration, students must fill out a short application.
