The Missouri Law Veterans Society (MLVS) is open to all students. The group was started to: (1) participate in the Veterans Law Appellate Advocacy Competition, held in Washington, D.C.; (2) be involved in introducing veterans law to law students by inviting speakers on the subject; and (3) reach out to the law student community, gathering information of particular interest to them (particularly internship and clerkship opportunities) and making that information available. You DO NOT have to be a veteran to join. Veterans law gives students a unique opportunity to participate in pro bono work and appellate advocacy early in their careers.
