Description: | In collaboration with the U.S. District Court for the Western District of New York (Buffalo Office) and Erie County Bar Association (ECBA) Volunteer Lawyers Project, I run a program at the courthouse to advise indigent, unrepresented litigants on legal matters. Students are involved in interviewing clients, performing legal research and assisting attorneys in formulating legal advice. This program runs throughout the calendar year, including all breaks. |
