“This program promises to be an innovative and exciting way to expand access to justice by offering the opportunity for law school training to those who live and work in our severely underserved rural communities.”
“As the Bar president in Yavapai County, I see a great need for new attorneys. I am one of the younger ones, and a lot of our really amazing attorneys are starting to retire at a rate that's exceeding the number of attorneys coming up. We are very interested in adding other attorneys to give our communities more people who can help more people.”
“ASU Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law offers this needed innovation in professional online learning. There’s legal talent embedded in our non-traditional community of learners. These are serious individuals who can excel at the Juris Doctor degree when offered the opportunity to learn beyond traditional campus settings. These skilled individuals can engage in the law and pursue their existing professions in the communities they currently serve.
