Hand in hand, towards justice. Striving to provide excellent legal advice to those who cannot afford private legal services.
Established in 2022 at The Durban North Campus, The Emeris Community Law Clinics (Emeris CLC) has rapidly expanded its footprint to Cape Town, Pretoria, Gqebehra and now Randburg providing excellent legal advice and services to those who cannot afford private legal services.
The Emeris CLC further strives to provide exceptional clinical law training for our law students which incorporates social justice awareness and ethics and seeks to instill a community service oriented approach to law and concern for others in all Emeris law students. The Emeris CLC will also serve as a place for our academic collective to further the research imperative to the benefit of the vulnerable.

“I am very happy with the services received you guys do an excellent job!”
“Please know that I'm deeply grateful for your hard work, commitment, and advocacy in my behalf. You have made a significant positive impact on my life, and will always be thankful for your service.’
“I would just like to firstly say thank you to the staff of IIE Varsity College for assisting me in my time of need. They were very professional, very respectful & very attentive.”
“I truly appreciate the support especially when one has no money and to have such fine representation especially when people come into court overconfident and have a humble human such as yourself with dignity and respect and ethics to be at your side.”
“My experience with the Varsity Law Clinic, particularly with Ms. Mothilall and Mr. Boy, was incredibly rewarding. They went above and beyond to assist me, and I truly appreciate their dedication and commitment to providing exceptional legal services.”
“I understand, and I'm grateful for every effort and time you guys put into this.”
“My appreciation goes to The IIE’s Varsity College Community Law Clinic - true defenders of democracy. Many innocent people end up in prison without proper representation. I wish the government would support and fund this vital initiative.”
