Family Legal Services Field Placement

Family Legal Services Certificate students will complete a field placement component in a work setting for a minimum of 40 hours. The field placement will provide students with exposure to family law practice and the relevant skills for the provision of family law legal services as a Family Legal Services Provider. A student's work experience and the scheduling of field placement will reflect the employer's needs. Assistance will be provided by the field placement coordinator to attempt to place students in a setting which matches their abilities, expectations, and interests. Should this not be possible the student agrees to accept the opportunity the field placement coordinator is able to supply.
