Environmental Law Clinic

Catalog description

The Tulane Environmental Law Clinic’s (TELC’s) purpose is to train law students in the practical aspects of representing clients on environmental issues. We emphasize client contact, strategic thinking, thorough investigation and research, persuasive writing, oral communication, ethics, and professionalism. TELC student attorneys are responsible for advancing client interests in disputes across a wide range of environmental issues. Student attorneys typically investigate facts, research and draft pleadings or administrative comments, argue motions, negotiate settlements, and/or present evidence at public and administrative hearings.
