Clinical attorneys Marissa Montes ’12 (pictured, left) and Emily Robinson (second from right) ’12 recently joined their Home Base Immigration Clinic clients, Francisco and Sonia, in Los Angeles as they took their oaths to become new U.S. citizens. The clinic focuses on providing representation to individuals who are unable to obtain immigration legal services elsewhere, focusing on the community of Boyle Heights and East Los Angeles area, specifically the constituents of Dolores Mission and Homeboy Industries. The clinic is accepting students for the 2014-2015 academic year. Interested students must have taken or be concurrently enrolled in Immigration Law during the 2014 fall semester. They may apply by sending a resume, a current transcript and a one-page personal statement to hbic@lls.edu by March 14, 2014.
