$50

50 Clients

This is the largest case UM's Low-Income Housing Clinic has ever tackled. We're representing 50 clients -- at no cost to them -- in their fight for safe housing. Help us stand up for them with a $50 gift.

$100

Filing Fees

It can cost anywhere from $50 to $200 in fees to file a lawsuit. The Low-Income Housing Clinic will be doing this for each of our 50 clients. Sponsor the fees with a gift of $100!

$350

From Oxford to Cleveland

Ole Miss School of Law faculty and students working for the Low-Income Housing Clinic have already made the trip from Oxford to Cleveland and back again many times. When this case goes to trial, they will make this 200-mile round trip many more times, and will have to book overnight accommodations. The cost of just one of these trips can run around $350. Help them serve their clients by sponsoring one of their overnight visits!

$500

One Month's Pay

Each student worker for the Low-Income Housing Clinic is paid $500 per month. Given how many hours they dedicate to these cases, working for the clinic is definitely a labor of love for these students, many of whom go on to work in public interest law once they graduate. Give $500 to cover one student's salary for one month!

$1,200

Dozens of Depositions

The cost of producing just one deposition, in labor and fees, could be as much as $1,200. In a case like this one with 50 clients, the Low-Income Housing Clinic will conduct dozens of depositions. Sponsor the cost of one of these vital pieces of our case!

$2,000

Expert Testimony

Expert witnesses are often used in lawsuits, and these professionals must be paid for their expertise and their time. We estimate that in this case, expert witnesses are crucial, but will cost at least $2,000 per client.
