Law school faculty and students joined from around the country for a briefing and discussion of the American Academy’s new report, “Civil Justice for All.” The report calls for the legal profession, the courts, tech professionals, and partners from many other fields to join together to provide legal assistance to many more people in need. The discussion focused on the role of law schools–students, faculty, clinics, and special programs–in closing the civil justice gap.
