Abstract
This chapter looks at one particular live-client clinic initiative that arose out of the urgent need of homeless migrants in Edinburgh, Scotland. It looks at the legal framework that necessitated intervention, the ways in which the project was set up and implemented and the challenges involved in the design and running of the clinic. Conclusions are then reached about how, in relatively pressing circumstances, a law school can provide a much needed service to vulnerable members of the public whilst at the same time addressing the educational requirements of law students.
