Colorado Laws Clinical Education Program provides free legal services in certain circumstances to Coloradans. Law student attorneys take the lead on clinic cases and are supervised by clinical faculty who are licensed to practice law in Colorado. Each clinic has different guidelines for selecting cases and not all clinics accept calls from individuals who are interested in representation.

Guidelines:


* American Indian Law Clinic assists poor persons only with cases involving issues of federal or tribal law,
* Civil Practice Clinic primarily handles cases in family law and Social Security disability, and only accepts cases that are referred to it by Colorado Legal Services.
* Criminal Defense Clinic limits its representation to misdemeanor and traffic cases in Boulder County, and provides services only to indigent persons.
* Entrepreneurial Law Clinic provides transactional legal services to local entrepreneurs who are trying to start a business in Colorado.
* Juvenile Law Clinic only accepts court-appointed work, and does not take inquiries from the public.
* Technology Law & Policy Clinic works in the public interest to analyze technology law policy issues. The clinic does not represent individuals. However, if you are aware of a technology law policy issue that should be considered by the clinic, please contact Associate Clinical Professor Brad Bernthal.


Mission Statement: To be an outstanding public law school that: provides students with a state-of-the-art legal education and prepares them to serve wisely and with professionalism; advances the development of knowledge through scholarship, testing of new ideas, and challenges to the status quo; and serves as a vehicle and catalyst for meaningful public service, all of which deliver high value to our students and have positive impacts—both locally and globally—on the legal profession and society.

Important Information

Legal Aid Funding
Legal aid professionals and organizations oftentimes receive government funding for taking on cases with those who cannot afford attorneys. For the most part, funding is limited so legal aid entities can only take on a limited amount of cases. Qualifications are often rigid.
