What Do We Hear from Our Alums about GJC?

"Clinic was the most worthwhile experience in my law school career – getting to work with real people, real clients, and making a real difference in their lives."Ìý-ÌýFormer D.C. Superior Court judicial law clerk, now in private practice

"I have to say that of all my classes, my experience with you in the Clinic left the biggest and best impression on me.ÌýYou were such an outstanding clinic instructor and several memories and instructions from you stick with me to this day."Ìý-ÌýAttorney at a worker’s compensation firm

"I was thinking about you the other day when I was prepping for my client intake meeting. I was nervous, so I started creating a very detailed list of every question I should ask him. Then I thought back to our GJC client intake simulation (seriously!) and remembered the lesson I learned there - that sometimes letting go of the structure and seeing where the client’s story takes you is better. So, that’s what I did, and I think I got a lot of good information that I might have missed otherwise."Ìý-ÌýAttorney with the Judge Advocate General

"Our clinic experience led to [my partner] becoming one of my closest friends."Ìý-ÌýPolicy counsel at an international non-profit

"Thank you again for everything you taught me in clinic—you helped shapeÌýthe lawyer I am today."Ìý-ÌýFormer legal services attorney, now in private practice
