Students enrolled in The Bob Parsons Veterans Advocacy Clinic will represent veterans before courts and administrative agencies in diverse civil and veterans benefits matters.

Under the supervision of a faculty member, students are responsible for all aspects of representing clients, including interviewing clients and witnesses, counseling clients, engaging in fact investigation and discovery, drafting documents, negotiating with adversaries, and conducting hearings and trials.

Cases are chosen  for their educational and community service value, and students will likely handle a diverse caseload during the semester. Students may practice before the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims, the Board of Veterans Appeals, and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) regional offices. Practice areas may include disability compensation and pension claims, discharge upgrades, medical and physical evaluation boards, Service members Civil Relief Act, fully developed claims, andveterans treatment courts.
