Legal clinic of Moscow State University. Legal clinic

Free qualified legal assistance at the Legal Clinic is provided by senior University students under the guidance of a teacher-mentor who, if necessary, helps students and coordinates their work. An individual approach is applied to each visitor.

Working at the Legal Clinic is an invaluable experience. Firstly, by consulting citizens, you deepen your theoretical knowledge acquired within the walls of the university. Secondly, it develops communication skills. Thirdly, the list of issues that citizens address is, as a rule, standard (dacha disputes, divorces, pensions, etc.) and, therefore, students can gain good experience in a certain area.

In addition, at the Legal Clinic you can do an internship, which is quite useful for those who see themselves in the future working directly with people, and not with documents. Also, student consultants annually take part in the “Clinician School”, where they improve their acquired skills and acquire new ones (an express course on the basics of free legal assistance). How do the consultants of the Legal Clinic help?

In addition to oral consultation, the consultant can print out the document form and help fill it out or simply give it to the visitor. There are situations when a person applies who, due to physical capabilities, cannot write a complaint, procedural document or something else, in which case the consultant helps to do this.

The Moscow branch of the Russian Bar Association is the largest in the Association. We unite more than one and a half thousand established and young lawyers living and working in Moscow, and our number is constantly growing.

The department was created in 2007. The governing bodies include well-known Moscow lawyers representing government agencies, the legal community, legal science, etc.

The concept of the Department's work involves complete consolidation of efforts. The Moscow branch of the Russian Lawyers' Association is you, its members. Almost all of the Branch’s activities are based on a voluntary basis and are implemented through the efforts of its members who propose and implement the Branch’s projects.

A fundamental feature of the Moscow branch of the Russian Bar Association is the maximum involvement of young lawyers in its activities. We do not separate young people from older generations, and we consider this the basis for the transfer of experience and knowledge and the renewal of law.

Every year the Moscow branch of the Russian Lawyers' Association improves its work. We believe that the Branch deserves to be the flagship of the regional development of the Russian Bar Association, to have high recognition both in Russia and in the world. Therefore, your opinion about the work of the Department and your feedback are important to us.

We are always happy to welcome every new member of the Moscow branch of the Russian Bar Association, we appreciate any suggestions and wishes of our colleagues, and we sincerely hope for your ambitions, your active life position and your participation in the work of the Branch.

We hope you enjoy our site.
