Client Application
The Business Law Clinic (the "Clinic") is an educational program of Campbell Law School. In the Clinic, student-attorneys represent companies that would not otherwise be able to afford legal services on a variety of matters. Applicants are not guaranteed services even if they are eligible. Whether the Clinic can accept any particular potential client depends on a number of factors, including not only client eligibility but also the clinic’s current workload, conflicts and other professional responsibility considerations, and our assessment of the fit between the legal services we provide and the needs of the potential client.  All student attorney representation is provided under the supervision of the Clinic Director or another fully licensed attorney.  Please review our website for more information.

Required
Please check below to confirm that: (a) All of the information submitted is accurate to the best of your knowledge, (b) This interaction does not establish an attorney-client relationship. You may seek another legal resource, you may not qualify for representation, or the Clinic may decline to undertake representation for any reason. Any attorney-client relationship, if any, will be formed only via a countersigned engagement letter after further discussion. (c) Because the Clinic is staffed by law students, the sufficiency of Clinic resources to meet immediate deadlines or time-sensitive matters is constrained by the availability of students, which is seasonal and dependent on the academic calendar, and therefore the Clinic may be unable, or may decline, to take on your matter if it is time-sensitive. If appropriate, the Clinic may refer you to outside counsel. *
Required
Please confirm whether you would like to be placed on our waitlist if we are not able to undertake representation at this time. *
We can often make referrals to other legal counsel for matters outside our expertise and/or business counseling assistance.  We cannot guarantee these services will be made available on a pro bono or no-cost basis.  Please confirm whether we can share the information you have provided to us with these outside parties. *

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT OUR DIRECTOR: The Director of the Business Law Clinic is also Counsel working at the Smith Anderson Law Firm, a for-profit law firm.  Since the Director is in private practice outside of the Clinic, there may be a financial incentive for the Director to steer applicants and clients of the Clinic to her firm for private representation.  The Director does not believe that this relationship will impair the Clinic’s representation of you or her ability to supervise Student Attorneys.  Further, should private representation be appropriate or necessary for you, you have the right to counsel of your choice and the Director and Clinic will endeavor to provide you with enough information to make an informed decision.  You have many options in the choice of legal counsel should you need to obtain one outside of the  Clinic.  You are not required to engage the Smith Anderson Law Firm nor will it be the appropriate or acceptable choice in all circumstances.  We will endeavor to provide you with advice about the representation alternatives should such circumstances arise. *
