Description
Working under the supervision of experienced tax attorneys, students participating in this clinic will assist in all aspects of the delivery of legal services to low income taxpayers in disputes with the Internal Revenue Service. Students may expect to engage in interviewing, counseling, research, drafting, and negotiation with the I.R.S. calendar and the disposition of the cases taken. In addition to the client work, students will also meet for weekly case review sessions.
