The goal of this course, available only to students in the 3L Bar Program, is to provide additional resources to transition students from law school to law practice. This course will introduce students to the practice of law in Arizona. Students will research Arizona secondary and primary sources, including specialized sources, and they will write and edit various practice-oriented documents, such as an engagement agreement and correspondence. In addition, students will practice client counseling skills, discuss the lawyer’s role in the justice system, develop a plan for professional identity, discuss pro bono opportunities in Arizona, and research a specific practice area in-depth.
