The Randall O. Sorrels Legal Clinics

Housed on the South Texas Law campus, The Randall O. Sorrels Legal Clinics provide students with opportunities to interview, counsel, and advise clients who are part of the Houston area’s underserved population. Students gain valuable experience working alongside seasoned attorneys across more than 20 practice areas. In a typical year, students in these clinics provide more than 35,000 hours of direct client services valued at roughly $2 million, mediate more than 150 disputes, and file more than 40 trademark applications.

These include Civil Practice Clinics that prepare students for small firm or solo practice, or to begin meaningful pro bono service upon graduation; Transactional Clinics that expose students to agency practice and the small business environment: Specialized Clinics that target contemporary justice issues or vulnerable populations; and Criminal Justice Clinics that are active in both prosecution and defense.
