The Essex Law Clinic is now open for applications for membership for the new academic year. After a very successful year, we are looking to again expand numbers, while at the same time ensuring that members have the commitment to client service that our clients deserve.

As a result, all who want to become Clinic volunteers (see below for entry to the clinical module) will have to apply via written application. In addition, if you are successful in your application, you will first spend a year as “Bronze” Members being trained and engaging in non-client face working (such as various public legal education projects, law reform, and legal campaigning) to demonstrate that you have what it takes to undertake client work as a “Silver” Member.

If you are interested in becoming a Law Clinic volunteer, please fill in this application form before 9am (BST) on Monday 21 October 2024. Should you have any issues with your application, please email elawclinic@essex.ac.uk.

Early applications are viewed as evidence of your organisational skills and enthusiasm which we are looking for in our members.

For successful applicants, there will be a compulsory induction held on Wednesday 30 October 2024 (time tbd).
