Position description
The Death Penalty Clinic was founded in 2001 on the principle that the right to a fair trial and equal protection under the law are core societal values. Through individual representation and impact litigation, the clinic puts this principle into practice. Our mission is to help students develop outstanding legal skills and to serve clients facing capital punishment. Our students gain a strong social justice orientation and the skills necessary to provide vigorous, professional, and high-level representation to their clients.
For more than two decades, clinic faculty and students have advocated on behalf of clients facing capital punishment in state and federal proceedings in states such as Alabama, Arizona, California, Georgia, Louisiana, North Carolina, and Texas. In some cases the clinic directly represents clients throughout post-conviction and clemency proceedings. In others, the clinic serves as co-counsel to investigate or litigate aspects of the capital case in which the clinic has particular expertise. The clinic has also filed amicus curiae briefs in the United States Supreme Court and California Supreme Court in cases involving challenges to discriminatory jury selection, race discrimination in the administration of the death penalty, and methods of execution.
The companion seminar engages students in the relevant substantive capital punishment law; habeas corpus practice and procedure; and the fundamentals of death penalty litigation, including fact investigation, interviewing skills, and the development of mitigation evidence.

Do you want to help farmers and businesspeople get creditors off their backs, preserve assets, and minimize taxes like no other law firm in the country? Ag & Business Legal Strategies is an entrepreneurial boutique firm that is on track for growth. It needs an experienced MANAGING ATTORNEY to join its team and collaborate with its owner, attorneys, and staff to support the team and help clients. The selected Managing Attorney will have the opportunity to become an owner of this dynamic law firm.
ABLS’ specialized expertise has landed the firm’s owner in venues from Congress (where he has championed changes to how the Bankruptcy Code impacts taxes owed by “right-sizing” farmers and advocated changes to the bankruptcy venue laws to require Chapter 11 debtors to file bankruptcy where they do business rather than where they are incorporated), to the United States Supreme Court (submitting an amicus curiae brief supporting farmers in Chapter 12), to appearances on various radio programs popular within the farming community across the Midwest. The owner is a frequent presenter at legal education seminars and ag financial industry training seminars across the United States.
ABLS exists to help farmers and business owners, providing them with cutting-edge services in debt restructuring negotiations and bankruptcy. Its client-centric model aims to help farmers and businesspeople understand the depth of their problems and explore the opportunities for change available to them, including options they might not initially like. ABLS aims to help its clients find comprehensive solutions to their complex problems, not merely continuing to kick the can down the road without making the business decisions that the client needs to make to ensure long-term success.
ABLS is known for helping its clients emerge from their extreme and stressful situations with the best outcomes possible. We are growing and we need a MANAGING ATTORNEY who can hit the ground running.
This position will be responsible for important work, including:
- Collaborating with the owner to take over day-to-day management of the firm; supervising the delivery of legal services by the firm’s staff; ensuring that staff meet their key performance indicators; evaluating staff and conducting periodic reviews of staff performance.

- Assisting clients in determining realistic goals then designing strategies to accomplish those goals.
- Providing excellent legal services, including legal research; drafting petitions, schedules, motions, pleadings, orders, and status updates; and overseeing and analyzing discovery.

- Conducting new client meetings (also called case evaluations or initial consultations) to sell the firm’s legal services.
