With more than 35 years of pacesetting experience, Rutgers-Newark offers students rich opportunities for "hands-on" legal experience in real cases involving under-represented clients, communities or causes. Guided by talented and accomplished faculty who bring expertise in litigation, legislation, mediation or transactional practice, our eight clinics are noted for their diversity, breadth and comprehensiveness of experiences offered, and their involvement in cases and projects with far-reaching social or community impact. Many law students find their clinical experiences to be very rewarding because of the critical importance of their work for underserved clients and causes and because of the students' immediate and direct responsibility for taking action to solve pressing legal problems.
