Michigan Clinical Fellows gain valuable experience and mentoring in clinical pedagogy and in their substantive area of practice. Their duties include clinical teaching and student supervision in  
    conjunction with clinic directors, and participation in the operation and development of the clinic in which they teach. Support is provided for professional development and scholarship.

    Required Qualifications

    The successful applicant will have a  strong interest in clinical teaching, experience in appellate advocacy and legal writing, a demonstrated commitment to public interest lawyering, and potential for scholarship and success as a clinical teacher.

    THE UNIVERSITY OF TULSA COLLEGE OF LAW Legal Clinic is hiring two staff attorney positions. Both positions will start immediately.

    1.       The first position is a staff attorney for our newest clinic, The Buck Colbert Franklin Legal Clinic, which was launched in the Fall 2021 semester. Buck Colbert Franklin was a Black attorney who held likely the first pop-up clinic in the Country post-Massacre. He set up one of the Red Cross tents and saw clients with his law partner and secretary and successfully litigated against the City of Tulsa’s racist ordinance that was past immediately after the Massacre. That ordinance required that any building that had been burned in the Massacre be rebuilt with bricks. Given that not a single insurance claim was paid, the bricks were an expense that people could not afford. It is his legacy that we have the honor and privilege of carrying on.

    Today, north Tulsa, the neighborhood that was destroyed in the Massacre, is a legal desert. It is home to a diverse population that includes Black Tulsans, Native American Tulsans, immigrant Tulsans and a poverty stricken population of all races and nationalities. To that end, we are working with the Tulsa NAACP on prisoner civil rights cases, with the Tulsa County PD’s office on excessive sentencing cases, expungements and parole, with Oklahoma Indian Legal Services on a variety of cases, and with community service providers to represent parents of color in juvenile proceedings to terminate parental rights. The Clinic will also be taking some limited family law cases. The staff attorney position is an exciting opportunity to be in on the ground floor of developing legal services for the north Tulsa.

    The staff attorney will be supervising the law students’ client work and will be responsible for the Clinic’s cases year-round. A minimum of 5 years’ experience practicing law is required, with licensure in Oklahoma or eligible to be licensed in Oklahoma. The full description of the position and how to apply is at the link directly below.

    https://universitytulsa.peopleadmin.com/postings/5149


    2.       Our second staff attorney position is for a staff attorney to work closely with our immigration programs, representing our immigrant clients in non-immigration proceedings. All too often, we have immigrant clients who need quality representation in proceedings such as family law proceedings or juvenile proceedings, but we have a very short list of affordable legal services to which we can refer.

    This position requires 3 years of legal experience, licensure in OK or eligibility for OK licensure.

    THE UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO LAW SCHOOL invites applications to lead its American Indian Law Clinic (“AILC”). The AILC, founded in 1992, was one of the first of its kind in the United States.

    The AILC application deadline has been extended to January 11, 2022. Please apply here

    (link: https://jobs.colorado.edu/jobs/JobDetail/?jobId=35539&emailCampaignId=168).

    With one of the country’s leading programs in American Indian Law, dating back to 1992, and a terrific faculty, student body, and set of Indian Country relationships, Colorado Law is excited about the opportunity presented by this position.

    We’re particularly eager for candidates who are able to educate the next generation in what we see as a seamless web of tribal, federal, and international law concerning Indigenous Peoples. This is a chance to join the legacy of David Getches, Charles Wilkinson, Rick Collins, Sarah Krakoff, Jerilyn DeCoteau, Jill Tompkins, Carla Fredericks, and more recently Jim Anaya and Kristen Carpenter, in our vibrant community at the University of Colorado. The AILC professor would potentially have the opportunity to participate in our joint projects with the Native American Rights Fund, serve as a mentor to our students, and get involved in the campus-wide Center for Native American and Indigenous Studies.

    For consideration, applications must be submitted through CU Boulder Jobs. Deadline is January 11, 2022. Application materials will not be accepted via email. Questions may be directed to Associate Professor Brad Bernthal (Brad.Bernthal@Colorado.edu).

    HARVARD LAW SCHOOL invites applications for a full-time clinical faculty member who will also serve as faculty director of the Law School’s Emmett Environmental Law and Policy Clinic. The faculty appointment may be a Clinical Professor of Law, Assistant Clinical Professor of Law, or Visiting Assistant Clinical Professor of Law, depending on the candidate’s amount and type of experience.

    The Emmett Environmental Law and Policy Clinic

    The Emmett Environmental Law and Policy Clinic at Harvard Law School offers students the opportunity to practice environmental law through work on a variety of litigation, administrative, legislative, and policy projects. The Clinic works with scientists, medical professionals, nonprofit and public interest organizations, and government clients on environmental and energy issues at the federal, state, and local level. The Clinic will have the opportunity to work collaboratively with the Law School’s Environmental and Energy Law Program to identify and advance solutions to environmental problems and train future leaders. 

    The work includes writing briefs and comment letters, drafting climate change mitigation and adaptation regulations and policies for municipalities, preparing guidance documents and manuals for non-lawyers, drafting model legislation, and preparing policy papers. The Clinic develops novel strategies to address complex environmental problems; investigates new cases; works with scientific, economic, and policy experts to help them present their views about the impacts of legal reforms; advises citizen scientists; and convenes meetings of policy-makers and regulators.

    Some students work off-campus with government agencies and nonprofit organizations, while others work on-campus on cutting-edge projects and case work under the supervision of the Clinic’s faculty and staff.

    Role and Responsibilities

    The Director will work with clinic staff and students to manage the legal work and operations of the Clinic. The Director will supervise clinical instructional fellows and/or clinical instructors and administrative staff and will have primary responsibility for identifying and leading various projects and initiatives of the clinic. The Director will also teach or co-teach clinical courses relating to the work of the Clinic and may have the opportunity to teach additional courses at the Law School. 

    The Director will have the opportunity to coordinate with the faculty directors and executive director of the Harvard Law School Environmental and Energy Law Program to pursue programming and initiatives of mutual interest to the Clinic and Program, and of benefit to HLS students. The two enterprises, together with the Law School’s course offerings on related topics, comprise HLS’s larger environmental law program.

    The Director will also have the opportunity to pursue complementary initiatives with other, related HLS clinics and programs, including the Animal Law Program and Food Law and Policy Clinic.

    Qualifications

    Applicants must have a J.D. from an ABA-accredited law school, admission to the Massachusetts bar or eligibility to practice and supervise students under S.J.C. Rule 3:04 while pursuing admission, a distinguished academic record, and a minimum of five years of practice experience in environmental law and policy. Applicants must also have substantial experience in the training, teaching, or mentoring of junior lawyers or law students, with clinical teaching experience a plus.

    Applicants should have a track record of deep experience with law practice and engagement with public interest lawyering — in particular, with issues relating to environmental law, regulation, and policy — whether in a law school clinic, a nongovernmental organization, or a government agency. Some experience with clinical legal education and a deep interest in clinical pedagogy and education are also clearly important. (Depending upon, among other things, the extent of past clinical teaching experience, this position may be filled as a Clinical Professor of Law, Assistant Clinical Professor of Law, or Visiting Assistant Clinical Professor of Law.)

    Applicants should also have excellent oral and written communication skills and the patience and ability to explain complex material in a clear manner to students with little to no legal experience. The role requires exceptionally strong personal skills and an ability to guide students’ management of projects, development of lawyering skills, and representation of clients using non-directive clinical teaching techniques.

    To apply, please send a letter of interest, a resume, and a list of three or more references to Harvard Law School Clinical Committee, c/o Christopher T. Bavitz; email address: clinicalhiring@law.harvard.edu. Please write "Emmett Environmental Clinic Application” in the subject line of the email.

    The application period will be open until January 31, 2022. Only those candidates selected for interviews will be contacted. The successful candidate will be expected to begin work no later than July 1, 2022.

    Harvard Law School is an equal opportunity employer that does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, disability, gender, nationality, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or other prohibited category.
