Many of the fundamental skills needed to represent older clients are best learned when law students work with actual clients. To describe a client’s options, the students first learn the options and then explain them in their own words. The legal concepts tend to sink in better. While doing this, the student addresses the client’s intellectual and emotional responses. Being focused on the client’s needs and engaged on many levels allows students to experience one of the most rewarding parts of being a lawyer. Clinical teachers get to help students find this moment, when they, too, can enjoy the satisfaction of solving problems for real people.
