The Milton A. Kramer Law Clinic Center is an in-house, real-client clinic which
provides legal services to members of the community unable to afford legal counsel. In our Clinic, third-year students act as the primary legal counsel for our clients from start
to finish. Nearly one third of all third year students complete a clinic course.
The Clinic Center is where students put their lawyering skills to work representing real clients in civil, criminal, and transactional matters.
With close assistance from faculty members, a student in one of the civil clinics may incorporate a nonprofit institution, help a homeowner sue for predatory lending practices,
or obtain disability benefits for a client. In the criminal clinic, students represent indigent defendants charged in misdemeanor and serious felony matters and in a special
project prosecute Domestic Violence, Menacing and Stalking cases in a local suburban court.
