Big things are happening at The University of Mississippi School of Law. The new Appellate Litigation Clinic, sponsored by FormanWatkins, has its first class of student-attorneys already working on real appeals, just weeks into the semester.

Six students. Three active cases. Real clients who couldn't otherwise afford representation. That's the kind of hands-on experience most lawyers don't get until years into their careers, and these students are getting it while still in law school.
