Several Minnesota Law alumni working at Stinson are volunteer supervising attorneys in the Business Law and Entrepreneurship Clinic

It didn’t take long for Adam Mikell ’23 to decide where he wanted to spend his time doing pro bono work—the Business Law and Entrepreneurship Clinic. After serving as the clinic’s student director in his last year at Minnesota Law, the corporate finance attorney in his first year at Stinson LLP has a special place in his heart for it.

“It was my favorite experience of law school,” Mikell says. “It was the best way to understand how to interact with clients. As a student attorney and student director, it was clear that the clinic couldn’t function without volunteers. Now that I'm in this position at Stinson, where I can volunteer and give back, I want to pay it forward.”

Students in the clinic provide transactional-based legal assistance to small businesses, nonprofits, and entrepreneurs while supervised by licensed business law or corporate attorneys. Six attorneys from Stinson, most of whom are also Minnesota Law alumni, volunteer with the clinic.
