Mitchell Hamline Launches a New Mobile Law Network

Mitchell Hamline School of Law has launched a new Mobile Law Network — a red RV specially outfitted to serve as a traveling law office.

“Our intent is to start by working with organizations around the state to increase access to legal services for people in need and to provide our students with even more extensive opportunities for hands-on legal experience,” said Mark C. Gordon, president and dean at Mitchell Hamline.

The vehicle will transport students to support a variety of legal services, focusing primarily in the areas of family law, criminal expungements, and advance health care planning. Students will provide information and assistance to those representing themselves and others who need guidance on legal matters.
