Providing legal services to those in need
Arizona State University launched the ASU Alumni Law Group, a teaching law firm that hires and mentors recent graduates of the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law. The Law Group, a nonprofit firm modeled after a teaching hospital, provides legal services to a variety of clients, focusing on those who cannot afford to pay market rates.
“The ASU Alumni Law Group represents the next stage in the evolution of legal education. This firm will bridge the gap between law school and practice by providing graduates with real-world training in a supportive teaching environment. Associates who go through this program will be well positioned to compete for a wide variety of legal jobs.” – Douglas Sylvester, dean of the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law
