ABA Approved Since 1970
Lewis & Clark LawSchool was founded in 1884. In 1965, the
school merged with Lewis & ClarkCollege, a private
liberal arts institution known for its overseas programs and its innovative
core curriculum. Lewis &Clark Law School is fully accredited by the
American Bar Association and is a member of the Association of American Law
Schools. The Law School grants J.D. and LL.M. degrees.
The master of laws degree is in environmental and natural resources law.
Lewis & Clark LawSchool is very selective in the admissions
process, receiving approximately 14 applications for each seat in the entering class. The
2009 entering class had a median LSAT of 161 and a median GPA of 3.52. The quality of the entering students places the school
well within the top quarter of the law schools in the country.
The
quality of the students and applicants goes beyond objective numbers. The class
reflects a rich diversity of backgrounds. Students are drawn nationally, with
almost 60 percent of students coming from outside Oregon.
The student body represents a wide spectrum of ages with a higher level
of maturity and professional experience than is often typical in law school
student populations. For the 2009 entering class, 51 percent are women and 24 percent are members
of ethnic minority groups.
Lewis & Clark LawSchool has a day and an evening division.
The day program is three years; the evening program is four years. Full-time
faculty rotate teaching loads through the evening division so that faculty,
graduation requirements and grading are the same in the two divisions. After
the first year, any student may transfer from full-time to part-time and vice
versa.
Lewis & Clark LawSchool presents its students with the
opportunity to specialize at the J.D. level. It offers six certificate
programs: Environmental and Natural Resources law, Federal Tax law, Business
law, Criminal law, Intellectual Property law, and Public Interest law. The
school has a strong national reputation in environmental law, with the most
extensive environmental and natural resources curriculum in the country. The Law School
is consistently ranked among the top environmental programs in the country. In
addition, the LawSchool’s legal writing
and intellectual property programs have also been ranked among the best in the
nation. The law reviews of Lewis& Clark Law School include Environmental Law, the
nation’s oldest law journal dedicated to natural resource and environmental
issues, a recognized leader in this field, The Lewis & Clark Law Review, a
general issue law review, and Animal Law, the first law review in the
nation dedicated to animal law issues. The Law School’s
tax curriculum is also unusually rich, with 10 course offerings devoted solely
to federal tax law and several seminars that include tax considerations as part
of transactional study. Beyond environmental law, business law, intellectual
property and tax law, the LawSchool also offers a rich
and extensive curriculum in traditional areas of law, including international,
criminal and civil litigation.
The Law School
has several clinical programs for students to gain "hands-on" practical experience
to complement their theoretical understanding. Under the supervision of the
clinical faculty, students assist in the representation of clients, including
interviewing, negotiating and appearing in court and administrative hearings.
The Lewis & Clark Legal Clinic is located in downtown Portland and allows students to serve
low-income clients and offers excellent experience for academic credit. The
Clinic currently focuses in the areas of bankruptcy and consumer, family,
landlord-tenant, employment and tax law.
The
environmental program includes two separate clinics: the Pacific Environmental
Advocacy Center (PEAC) and the International Environmental Law Project (IELP).
PEAC was recognized by the National Jurist as one of the "winningest" law
clinics in the nation.
The Small
Business Legal Clinic (SBLC) gives students hands-on transactional business law
experience with small and emerging businesses. Focused on minority and women-owned businesses,
the SBLC also houses a unique pro bono project that brings business lawyers from
around the city to the Clinic. Law students interested in non-profit corporate and community
development law can take part in the CommunityDevelopment LawCenter, a clinic offering
transactional experience in the areas of non-profit formation and governance,
real estate, employment, tax and environmental law.
As the
nation’s only on-campus clinic dedicated to animal protection issues, the Center
for Animal Law Studies at Lewis & Clark provides a rewarding opportunity
for students to develop their litigation, negotiation, drafting and advocacy
skills while working to protect animals. The Clinic focuses on animal
protection litigation, legislation, and policy work. Its cases include actions
against those who have harmed or injured animals, custody disputes, activist defense,
"dangerous" dog hearings, companion animal trusts, veterinary malpractice and
legal support for animal protection organizations.
The Crime
Victim Litigation Clinic is run by the National Crime Victim Law Institute (NCLVI),
which is based at Lewis &Clark Law School. The Clinic affords students
hands-on experience writing amicus curiae briefs for trial and appellate courts
nationwide. In addition, students have the opportunity to work with lawyers
nationwide who are directly representing crime victims in criminal cases by
providing research and writing on issues of first impression. The Clinic
provides students with an intensive and practical legal research and writing
experience, as well as knowledge of criminal and appellate procedures, and
substantive rights theory.
The Law School
offers many other special opportunities to students beyond the classroom and clinical
curriculum. Programs include appellate advocacy, mock trial, international law,
and client counseling. The school’s extensive moot court offerings include a
course in trial advocacy which allows students to actually conduct a mock jury
trial in front of prominent local judges. Lewis & Clark students recently won first place in the 2010 Pace National Environmental
Moot Court Competition, for the third year in a row, the seventh time in 17 years. Another
moot court program focuses specifically on tax cases. Clinical internships, including IP and corporate internships with corporate legal
departments, externships, the Higgins Visitor, the Business Roundtables, the
Distinguished Natural Resources Visitor, the Distinguished Intellectual
Property Visitor, and an active Continuing Legal Education program offer
additional learning opportunities.
The Paul
L. Boley Law Library, the largest law library in Oregon, contains more than 520,000 volumes
and volume equivalents, along with an experienced and friendly staff of
nineteen. The library is also a United States Patent and Trademark Depository
Library, the only law library so designated. In addition to LexisNexis and
Westlaw, the law library subscribes to an extensive collection of legal
research databases including BNA All, HeinOnline, ILP Full-Text, LegalTrac, ELR,
as well as various full-text newspapers. Every seat in the library is wired for
network access and the entire law school, including outdoor areas, boasts
wireless access to the Internet. The library features a wide variety of study
venues, and includes ample carrel and table seating, a computer lab, ten group
study rooms, and two reading rooms, each with picturesque views of the adjacent
state wilderness park.
The Law School’s
graduates take jobs throughout the nation. Our alumni practice in every part of
the United States
and in several foreign countries, using their legal training in a diverse range
of specialties. The LawSchool’s graduates make
their careers as attorneys in law firms, in offices of public defenders and
prosecutors, and legal aid and public interest organizations. They work in
corporations, for state and public agencies, and in areas that combine
experience gained before law school with their law degrees. A significant proportion
obtain judicial clerkships, and some pursue further academic studies in
graduate legal education.
