The UFS Law Clinic in our Faculty of Law is proud of the three candidate attorneys who have been admitted to the High Court in Bloemfontein.
Samantha Britz, Shawn Phillips and Roxanne van Niekerk completed their studies at the UFS, as well as their acticled clerkships. According to advocate Inez Bezuidenhout of the UFS Law Clinic, the trio - now admitted attorneys – are true homegrown products.
The youth support programme of the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development made it possible for the UFS Law Clinic to appoint candidate attorneys in 2009 and 2010. Samantha, Shawn and Roxanne did community service under supervision of the Law Clinic, as well as providing legal services to disadvantaged members of the greater Bloemfontein area.
