Volunteer students from LAW 151 (Estate Planning and Probate) draft estate planning documents for pro bono estate planning clients. They are well-equipped to meet with clients and draft their legal documents, while under the supervision of an attorney licensed in the state of Hawaii.
In compliance with the Hawaii Rules of Professional Conduct, Ms. Iwao meets with all clients, properly engages them, supervises all students who participate in the clinic, and provides professional liability insurance for all clinic work.
The estate planning clinic provides to pro bono clients actual legal documents, including a will, advance-health care directive, power of attorney and POLST document.
"Professor Kim Koide Iwao was very well organized and arranged all our tasks in a way we could be most efficient for the client. I thoroughly enjoyed how professional she was throughout the process while making the clinic fun and proud to be a part of."
"Actual application and interaction of theoretical concepts learned in the program."
"The ability to apply learned theory and practices to a "real" client!"
"Being able to get the hands on experience of everything we learned in class and practice it on real clients."
"The KKI Law Estate Planning Clinic was definitely beneficial in that the hands-on experience helped me to be engaged in the process. It taught me how important it is to be thorough not only in the interview and questioning process, but also with the completion of the legal documents."
"Absolutely beneficial. Further illustrates the practical application of skills and knowledge taught in the program."
"Absolutely! There is nothing like actual application of lessons learned in class. Ms. Koide is a role model and mentor to her students. I try my best to emulate her in deed and attitude."
"Yes, it was beneficial to have this clinic since we are studying to be paralegals I think practicing with real clients was the most valuable thing we did. For someone who is not in the legal field currently this gave me a great sense of what my future career could be like."
"Most Definitely. The practical skills help boost my confidence and professional experience."
“Jessica was completely competent and comfortable with the process. She fielded my many questions flawlessly, deferring one or two in order to be certain. The work products provided were indistinguishable from what a downtown attorney supplied (by previous arrangement) for thousands of dollars. My high expectations of the Estate Planning Clinic were exceeded and it benefited everyone involved. Thank you so very much for the opportunity to participate.” – Estate Planning Clinic Client
“I was extremely impressed with my experience with the estate planning clinic! Cheniel was professional, well-prepared, and was able and willing to interpret legal speak into common language. She was friendly, competent, and she answered my questions without bias or subjective opinion. I would have gladly paid for the level of service I received - mahalo nui!” – Estate Planning Clinic Client
