Professor Caleb Smith joined the faculty in 2017 as visiting associate professor of clinical law. Before joining the Ronald M. Mankoff Tax Clinic, Smith most recently worked as a clinical fellow at Harvard Law School’s Federal Tax Clinic. He has given several presentations at national ABA Tax Section conferences on low-income tax issues, and he co-authored a chapter on the Earned Income Tax Credit in the forthcoming seventh edition of the ABA’s Effectively Representing Your Client Before the IRS. Since 2008 Smith has worked with low-income taxpayer issues: prior to law school as program manager at Minnesota’s largest tax assistance nonprofit; during law school as student director of his school’s Federal Tax Clinic; and after law school as an attorney at low-income taxpayer clinics in Minneapolis and Boston. In addition to directing the Federal Tax Clinic, Smith teaches Federal Tax Procedure.
