Legal Clinics and Advocacy at Iowa Law


A private practice CPA based in Iowa, Bruce A. Willey is a tax strategist with American Tax Law Planning, LLC in Cedar Rapids. Before launching his career in tax law, Bruce A. Willey received his JD with distinction from the University of Iowa. 

The JD program at the University of Iowa College of Law includes a variety of practical legal learning opportunities for students. Moot court competitions give second year students the chance to conduct legal research and draft legal briefs, culminating in an oral presentation of their arguments. Appellate advocacy participants with the highest scores have the opportunity to compete in spring competitions such as the Van Oosterhout-Baskerville Domestic Competition and Jessup International Moot Court Competition. 

Iowa Law also offers a comprehensive clinical law program, where students can put their legal knowledge to use in several distinct practice areas. As interns, students work closely with full-time faculty, handling responsibilities ranging from counseling and negotiation to fact investigation and courtroom appearances.
