In addition to the Law School Pro Bono Clinics mentioned above, many law school have other pro bono projects. Pro Bono Research Project.
Law students conduct research for private attorneys handling pro bono matters.
Students can also volunteer to do intake at the Minneapolis Legal Aid Society for a four-hour shift at least once a week. The largest number of students volunteer for the Guardian Ad Litem Project, where they appear in court on behalf of children in abuse and neglect cases. Three times a year, twenty students and twenty lawyers participate in a family law clinic where students conduct initial interviews and brief the lawyers. Lawyers interview the clients and handle the representation, with the student writing legal memoranda and serving as law clerks for the lawyer. Public Interest Law Perspective.
