Will meet regularly with other teaching staff; assist in conducting case rounds and seminars on practice skills and substantive law; and participate in other office-wide projects, including orientation, trainings and outreach events. During summer months and other periods of student absence, might be entirely or partially responsible for direct case handling, including communication with clients, motions and trials. Some evening and occasional weekend hours are expected. Will report to the Bureau’s Faculty Director and to the clinic’s Administrative Director.
