Georgia State to open legal clinic for veterans

Georgia State University’s College of Law and ROTC will open a law volunteer clinic next week designed to serve the university’s 800 enrolled veterans.

The clinic will be a hybrid model dealing with veterans and service members in the National Guard and the active reserves in a law school and ROTC environments. The clinic will be staffed by law student volunteers and attorney mentors providing legal assistance on issues ranging from financial to family-related matters.

A ribbon-cutting ceremony for the clinic begins at 4 p.m., on Nov. 11 at the ROTC campus office, 120 Courtland St. in Atlanta.
