American Indian Wills Clinic

The relationship between the U.S. Government and tribes makes estate planning particularly complicated.

Under the supervision of a faculty clinician, students in the Wills Clinic provide wills and estate planning services to American Indians owning trust or restricted property in Oklahoma. Clinic students are primarily responsible for all case-related work including fact gathering, developing legal theories, and initial document drafting. During the semester, students are expected to provide legal services for an average of 6 to 10 hours per week outside of class time. The classroom component complements students’ fieldwork.

Prerequisites: Legal Profession and Wills, Trusts, and Estates. American Indian Law or Tribal Law is recommended, but not a prerequisite.
