Through MJF, students have the opportunity to work with lawyers in a variety of legal advice settings or to complete research projects for lawyers who have taken cases on a pro-bono basis.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, MJF sponsors several summer clerkships per year, in settings which provide legal services to indigent clients.\u00a0 Through these experiences, law students and lawyers will develop an awareness of their ethical obligation to undertake public interest legal representation in the future.
