The Lawyering Skills Course
An overview of the Lawyering Skills Course at the University of Wisconsin Law School.
The Lawyering Skills Course differs from the other clinical programs at the Law School in that it employs the use of simulation exercises, many of which are taught by practicing lawyers, to provide students with the opportunity to integrate what they've learned throughout law school with the core skills needed for effective law practice. The course is open to both second- and third-year students, and emphasizes the skills that they will need in the early years of practice.
