Qualifications and Duties: The University of Wyoming College of Law invites applications for a tenure-track position as Faculty Supervisor of the Civil Legal Services Clinic (CLSC) to start in Fall 2024. Located in the Laramie Valley in Southeast Wyoming, the College of Law supports access to justice to all Wyoming residents. Together with 2 additional civil clinics, the CLSC serves as one of the largest pro bono civil legal service providers in the state. CLSC cases cross a spectrum of substantive areas of law including property, low-conflict family law, unjust enrichment, replevin, consumer protection and debt collection. Case priorities are chosen by the Faculty Supervisor. Traditionally the CLSC has developed and maintained partnerships with Equal Justice Wyoming, Legal Aid of Wyoming, and other regionally-based legal service providers to ensure that Wyoming’s most economically and geographically marginalized communities have access to high-quality representation. In addition, the College has a history of supporting inter-disciplinary and cross-campus collaborations that have produced exciting research opportunities and scholarship.
