Workers' Rights Clinic

The Workers' Rights Clinic is closed until further notice.
Feel free to contact us for referrals by emailing us at law-clinics@arizona.edu.

The Workers' Rights Clinic at the University of Arizona James E. Rogers College of Law is dedicated to training the next generation of lawyers through close supervision and hands-on experience in direct client representation, community education and outreach, and policy research and writing.

Our work focuses on the intersection of immigration, employment and labor laws to support the rights of low-wage workers from immigrant communities throughout Arizona. We are the only clinic in the state that provides free legal services to low-wage workers and that operates a Worker Hotline. Our students begin with the desire to serve underrepresented communities and leave armed with the knowledge and on-the-ground experience necessary to excel in any legal career path they choose.

"The Workers’ Rights Clinic has been one of the most important things I’ve done in law school. Having the opportunity to provide direct representation for someone gave me the sense of obligation that I think is so critical in law. I had the opportunity to be someone’s advocate. It was an incredible feeling."
