Lawyering Seminar I · 4 credits · Fall 2026
About this course
First-Year Lawyering Seminar teaches legal reasoning, professional responsibility, legal writing, and other lawyering skills by integrating clinical methodology with substantive, theoretical, and doctrinal material. Using simulation exercises and hypothetical cases, students role-play lawyers, clients, judges, or legislators confronted by legal issues arising from material in their other first-year courses. For example, in conjunction with their Criminal Law course, students may be assigned the roles of lawyers representing or prosecuting persons in a criminal case, or, in Law and Family Relations, they may role-play lawyers representing or prosecuting various parties in a child abuse case in Family Court.
