Faulkner Law Clinics and Public Interest Program

Superstars spotted at our monthly clinic at Strong Tower! Travis Chin and Delaney Russ will be recognized by the Alabama State Bar later this summer as the 2026 Volunteer Lawyer and Volunteer Law Student of the Year!

It's a wrap for another semester! We were busy in the Elder Law and GAP (heirs' property) Clinics . . . finishing strong with community education and pro bono clinics in Fort Deposit, at Lightwood Church of Christ in Marbury, Freewill Missionary Baptist Church in Montgomery, and the West End Baptist Church and Chilton County Extension Office in Clanton. Whew! So proud of these law students for serving our communities.

Coming in April @ Freewill Baptist Church in Montgomery.

On the road again, this time partnering with Macon County Probate Judge Cooper, and others, to present information and advice on estate planning and heirs property resolution at Greater Saint Mark’s in Tuskegee today.

Here we come Macon County!

We had a wonderful time at New Home Mt. Meigs Church yesterday. Our clinical faculty, law students, and staff provided information on estate planning and heirs’ property to about 60 community members. And we completed some legal documents while we were there!

Fall classes have just begun. But, before we get too far into the semester, let's give a shout out to our four summer clinic interns and new clinical faculty member Will Breland!

We are so proud of 2025 grad, Savannah Nelson! Savannah was recently recognized at the Alabama State Bar Annual Meeting with the ASB Pro Bono Student Award. Savannah was also this year’s Distinguished Public Interest Fellow, and her work with the MVLP and JPILF are a concrete example of the spirit of service our law school values so highly.

Another community education event coming up!
