Leeds Trinity University Law Clinic

The Leeds Trinity Law Clinic allows our students to hone their knowledge and skills by advising real people facing real legal problems. 

The Clinic provides free legal advice and assistance to members of the public who are otherwise unable to access justice. Clients can receive free advice via Zoom, Teams, telephone or speak directly to the Clinic.

Our Law Clinic Partners - drawn from various law firms - and qualified Law School staff supervise our students, ensuring that both parties - students and client - receive the best support possible.

Building Real-World Legal Skills Through the Law Clinic

 

“Working with the Law Clinic changed how I think about the law. Reading cases and writing essays is one thing, but sitting across from someone who genuinely needs help and knowing you have to get it right is something else entirely.

It made me more confident and more aware of what professional responsibility actually means. The Clinic also helped me develop core skills as a prospective solicitor. After graduating, I intend to pursue a career as a solicitor, and the Law Clinic experience has gone a long way in preparing me for that. 

The Clinic gave me a genuine sense of what day-to-day legal practice looks like, and I feel far better prepared for the SQE because of it.”
