Chicago-Kent is an equal opportunity employer. Since our founding as a law school serving Chicago’s immigrant and working-class communities, we have been committed to fostering the inclusion of underrepresented groups in the legal profession. We accepted women and students of color from our inception, graduating our first African-American woman in 1894. We are committed to increasing the diversity of our faculty and continuing our dedication to providing opportunities for all, regardless of age, citizenship status, class, color, disability, ethnicity, gender identity, national origin, race, religion, sex, or sexual orientation.
While we will be consulting the Faculty Appointments Register (FAR) through the American Association of Law Schools (AALS), we welcome expressions of interest from both entry-level and lateral candidates, which should be directed to [email protected] and include a cover letter and CV.
The C-K Law Group of Chicago-Kent College of Law, Illinois Institute of Technology, is now accepting applications for one or more full-time in-house clinical faculty members from established attorneys who are interested in combining their practices with a teaching career. We are specifically, but not limited to, considering attorneys who practice in the following areas: Business Transactions, Real Estate, Probate and Estate Planning, Intellectual Property, Privacy and Technology, Environmental Law, and Human Rights.
The successful candidate already has a robust and transferable client base. As a clinical professor, primary duties include teaching lawyering skills to enrolled student interns, supervising their assigned client case work, and mentoring them through the myriad associated professional issues.
The attorney’s salary is negotiable and based on experience, but will be primarily determined by the amount of fees the attorney is able to generate from the clients he or she represents. The position carries University benefits including medical, group life insurance, retirement, etc.
This is an excellent opportunity for talented attorneys wishing to teach and practice in a unique in-house clinical education setting. Preference will be given to candidates who have been admitted to the Illinois Bar for a minimum of five (5) years, have a strong background in their particular practice area, and have some experience educating law students in the practice of law. Applicants should have strong academic credentials and a commitment to educating the next generation of lawyers, as well as a desire to be part of a collegial group of attorneys and faculty at the law school.
